facts #amazingfacts of snake plsHere are three fascinating pieces of information about snakes:

1. Diverse Species

There are over 3,000 species of snakes worldwide, found on every continent except Antarctica. They range from tiny thread snakes (4 inches long) to massive reticulated pythons (over 30 feet long).


2. Unique Movement

Snakes use several types of locomotion:

Serpentine movement (slithering in an S-shape).

Sidewinding (used in deserts for better traction).

Rectilinear movement (slow, straight movement for stalking prey).



3. Venom and Hunting

About 600 species of snakes are venomous. Snake venom can contain neurotoxins, hemotoxins, or cytotoxins, used to paralyze, kill prey, or digest tissues. Some snakes, like pythons and boas, use constriction instead of venom to subdue their prey.
