DEDICATION
This book is dedicated to little children and to those who love and curious about the scaly, legless and poisonous snakes.
DO SNAKES SCARE YOU?
Many people find snakes creepy and frightening. It’s a normal reaction, since snakes are strange creatures that don’t look so friendly and cuddly. People are also scared to get bitten by snakes because they have poisonous fangs.
However, snakes are mostly misunderstood creatures. There are different circumstances which explain why a snake usually attacks humans. You probably would not one as a pet at home, but you would definitely understand them better with these fascinating facts scientists have discovered about snakes in general.

Not all snakes are dangerous to humans. These kids are playing with harmless varieties of snakes.
SNAKE FACTS
1. Snakes are reptiles, cold-blooded creatures or creatures that adjust body temperatures according to their environment. They belong to the sub-order serpentia, a group of flexible, long and crawling reptiles.
2. There are almost 3,000 known species of snakes worldwide, but only 375 are venomous. They are found everywhere except in extremely cold places like Antarctica, Iceland, and Greenland.
3. Snakes have noses, but they use their tongues to smell things. This is why snakes often stick their tongues out, creating the hissing sound we hear from them.

All snakes have teeth, but only poisonous snakes have fangs. They use these fangs to inject poison on their prey.
4. Snakes kill their prey either by injecting venom through their fangs or by choking them by wrapping their bodies around them.
5. Snakes are deaf and have poor eyesight, but their sense of smell is strong. They can also feel sound vibrations.
6. Snakes regulate their body temperature by sunning themselves or moving to cooler places. During the winter, snakes often go to long periods of sleep called hibernation.
7. Snakes swallow their prey whole. A snake’s throat stretches to accommodate the size of its prey, and its stomach contains the necessary substances to digest them.
