Snake
Snake / sneɪk / (স্নেইক) n [snake also called a serpent, any of about 2,900 species of reptiles distinguished by their limbless condition and greatly elongated body and tail. They do not have legs, voices, ears, and eyelids. Despite this, snakes are successful carnivores. They have a long, slender bodies, and are very mobile in their own way. Their skin is covered with scales. They can see well enough, and they can taste scents with their forked tongues by flicking them in and out. They are very sensitive to vibrations in the ground.
Though they do not have a voice, they can hiss. Most live on the ground, others live in the water, and a few live under the soil. Like all reptiles, snakes need the heat of the sun to control their body temperature. That is why most snakes are in the warm, humid tropical regions of the world. Snakes literally grow out of their skin. Every few months, most start rubbing against the ground or tree branches. Starring at the mouth, a snake slithers out of its too-light skin. Like a sock, the skin comes off inside out.
The coloring of a snake’s skin scales provides excellent camouflage from predators and prey. Tree snakes can have a color as green as any leaf in the forest; ground snakes are as brown or dusty grey as the earth and rocks, and sea snakes are dark above and light beneath. Snakes attack only when hungry or threatened. When frightened, they tend to flee. If there is no time for a fight, or if snakes are cornered or antagonized, they strike. Venomous snakes have two fangs in the upper jaw that penetrate the flesh of their prey. Poison glands then pump venom through grooves inside the fangs into the prey. Some snakes inject their prey with toxins and wait until the prey is no longer captive or struggling before eating it.
Snakes have fascinated and frightened humans for thousands of years. Some cultures still worship snakes, seeing them as creators and protectors. Other cultures fear snakes as devils and symbols of death] (সাপ; সর্প): Venomous snakes spit and hiss when they are cornered. A snake slithered across the wet road. A snake coiled up in the grass.
