It is no surprise that many people are afraid of snakes yet they may be surprised that most snakes are harmless. There are about three thousand kinds of snakes. Here is information about these cold-blooded animals, including their physical characteristics and where they live. One also learns how they live, how they give birth (most lay eggs; some give birth to live babies), and how they eat (they swallow their prey whole, sometimes while the prey is still alive). Knowing about snakes, from the most ordinary
garden variety to the most exotic constrictors and venomous species,
is to admire and respect
these extraordinary reptiles. Holiday House, Inc. |
