 Yup, they’ve got regular teeth as well as the sharp set of fangs you know about. They also come in the front and back, depending on the species.

 

2. They drink water without lips

 Hard to imagine life without lips right? Well, snakes use their mouths to create a suction to drink instead. Cool!

 

3. They smell the air to hunt

 They’re not flicking their tongues out (or blepping) for nothing! Snakes taste the air, and some even use infrared to see better.

 4. They have unique skeletons

 Despite how flexible they look, they do have bones and they’re not ‘all tail’. 

 

5. They can slither up to 12.5 miles per hour (that’s the Black Mamba)

Wow, that’s a tad scary. If they wanted to, they could really catch up to you…

 

So what do you think? Snakes are awesome, aren’t they 😍
