What does a snakes do?
well snakes are creations by god and are slithering creatures, there are 3 groups of snakes, venomous, nonvenomous, and constrictors. venomous snakes are snakes that are deadly so you do not want to get near them, how you can tell the snake is venomous you can look at it head shape, if its a triangle its a venomous or a constrictor. it will have a round head if its a nonvenomous. constrictors are snakes that will squeeze and choke you then eat you. lucky for us they are mostly inAfrica. if you were to FUD a snake its most likely to be nonvenomous. P.S. if you live in the south west in America and you hear a rattle? RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! P.S.S. cause that's a rattlesnake (very deadly). BE,VERY CAREFUL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
