Snakes. What most people think of is poisonous fangs, long and scaly body, no legs, forked tounge... I think snakes are amazing, the way they live and cope up. But that's not all about this amazing creature. Snakes are also kept as pets.
Most people don't like snakes. Why? That, I don't know. There are many reasons. By the way, there is no such thing as a poisonous snake, the term is venomous. Snakes are not poisonous, but they do inject venom making them venomous, there is a difference.
Tell a difference between venomous and non-venomous snakes:
The head of a venomous snake looks like your hand balled into a fist on the end of your arm. As the body of the snake tapers toward the head, the jowls flare out making a very distinctive head shape. The exception is the Brown water snake on the central east coast. It has a vaguely flared head but it is not venomous.
The Inland Taipan Snake (Venomous)
As for the non venomous snake, its head shape is roughly the same size as the rest of its body, the exception being the coral snake.
Black Rat Snake (Non-Venomous)
So, careful when you pick up a snake. Know the difference and you'll see the advantages.
