About Snakes

Did you know that snakes are one of the most misunderstood
creatures in the animal kingdom? In this book we are going to learn
about snakes. We are going to talk about where they live, how they
hunt, what they eat, and learn some fun and interesting facts about
snakes. One thing that is very interesting about snakes is that some
species lay eggs to hatch and other species give birth to live young. As
we talk about each different snake keep an eye out for which ones lay
eggs and which have live babies. Snakes are also grouped together in
different families just like humans! We will learn a few of the snake
families and some of the snakes that belong to them.

Boa Snakes, Water Snakes

The largest snake family is the Colubridae. They include almost
70% of all snakes and can be found worldwide. Snakes in this family
group lay eggs or sometimes have live babies. Animals that give birth
to live babies are called viviparous and animals that lay eggs are called
oviparous.

The next family of snakes in this book is the Elapidae. They are a
venomous snake which means they inject their prey with poison
through their fangs. They live mostly in tropical, wet areas and almost
all of them lay eggs. One type of Elapidae is the Sea Snake which is
different than the Water Snake.

Pythons and Rattlesnakes

One of the more interesting families of snakes is the Boidae. They
are typically non-venomous and what’s interesting about them is that
they are constrictors. They do not inject their prey with venom. Instead
they wrap their bodies around the prey and compress the victim until it
suffocates. Some scientists consider pythons to part of this family.
Scientists who study snakes have their own special name. They are
called herpetologists. Sometimes they can be called serpentologists. If
you were going to study snakes which name would you choose?
The last family of snakes that we are going to learn about in this
book is the Viperidae.

Remember these are only a few of the snake
families. There are many more that you can learn about. Viperidae refers to viper and the snakes in this family are venomous. Rattlesnakes
belong in this family and we will talk about some of them as well as
others.
