Tropical and exotic places that become favorite snakes
Author: Rose F. Callaway
Snakes are characterized by their elongated body and, as already mentioned, have no limbs. Some species have a poisonous bite, and sometimes deadly to humans. The poison of their bite is usually to kill their victims before eating, although there are types of snakes of considerable size that choke your body rather than poison them.
The skin of snakes is flaky, and sometimes covered with body fluids that allow them to slide more easily on rougher surfaces. One of the most popular features is that snakes shed their skin – that is, periodically, they drop the oldest layer of skin after a new one.
The bodies of the snake are quite different from other reptiles due to its tubular structure, as well as the respiratory tract and are well adapted and organs are quite small, so that can occasionally miss some, such as the left lung, without being affected by it.
Snake
Snakes are oviparous, ie, reproduce by eggs, and as a curiosity it should be noted that sometimes the mother carries the eggs inside until the offspring are almost developed, made because the snake eggs are part of the food chain the ecosystems in which they are.
There are over 450 genera and nearly 2,900 species of snakes and a variety distinguished mainly by the weather. In humid climates and cold as in Europe or in northern areas, we can find common species in forests and watersheds, which pose no threat to humans.
It is tropical and exotic places where we find the most dangerous species, cobras, coral snakes, mambas and sea snakes. All have a bite that transmits nerve poison, that is, which affects the nervous system, and are potentially deadly to humans. In swamps and rivers tropical Africa, Asia and the Amazon jungle are boas, anacondas and pythons, a species dangerous because thanks to its large size and enormous strength, can strangle and eat a human being, although they prefer other type of prey and for obvious reasons never have been such cases.
