Exploring the Evolution of Snake

 They say that nothing is permanent in this world except change. All things change with time and this is called evolution. All things in the world are constantly changing along with humans, but it is believed that if evolution is to be understood properly then snakes should be studied. Why is it like this? In today's article, we are going to examine this question in depth, from their evolution and their body structure to every small detail, along with interesting facts related to snakes.We will talk about big things too.

Snake

More than three thousand 400 species of snakes are found all over the world. These species are found on land as well as in water. According to experts, about 220 species of snakes are found in water. Let us tell you that along with land, there are many such species of aquatic snakes, seeing which even an intelligent person gets scared and how dangerous they are for humans can be gauged from the fact that every year about 14 Millions of people are bitten by snakes all over the world.

There are many variations in snakes in terms of size, some snakes are very large and some are very small. If you want to see a bigger snake then look at the Green Anaconda to see how big the Green Anaconda can be. Let us tell you that the length of Green Anaconda can be up to 30 feet and its weight can be up to 250 kg.

Apart from their color being olive brown green, black spots are also found on their body. Whenever these snakes feel hungry, they do not hesitate to attack humans. Along with these big snakes, some snakes are so small that they will slip away from you and you will not even notice.

These snakes are as small in appearance as other earthworms. These snakes, which look like small threads, are found in Craven Island of Barbados. The length of these snakes can increase up to 10.4 centimeters and their weight can increase up to 0.6 kilograms. Small snakes prefer ants and termites as food.

If you have learned about the largest and smallest snakes, have you ever wondered where and how these snakes originated?

origin of snake

Many discoveries and researches show that the evolution of snakes, which are found in more than a hundred parts today, started from lizards which they used to hunt and some parts of the body of lizards produced dates and spices. , Gradually removing the lizard's legs from its body means that future generations will be born without legs. And all this has been going on since then, this miracle happened when the lizard came to know that its lips were a snake.

There are many advantages of making any kind of high-speed scooter, keeping all these things in mind we can say that model research keeps evolving, so after some time it may also turn into Snake. Although this seems very unlikely to happen as the climate and conditions at the moment are much more secure than before, under a similar development it is also possible that the Snake film will begin to grow legs and its victory will awaken. Example is skink.

Skink

Skinks, which are found in continents like Asia, Africa and Europe, belong to a family of lizards called sabilong. Let us tell you that till about 62 crore years ago, legs were not found in the skink's body, that is, it had completely transformed from a lizard to a snake. But the remains of the Climate Company and other remains are seen wandering around, joining the Lizard.

Along with changes in their body, their speed also became much faster and skinks also became better hunters than before, that is, skinks can evolve by regrowing their legs and then in the future they can adapt themselves according to their needs. Can. Can you remove the legs? Let us tell you that a creature named Sonikhetchog is found among lizards.

Lizard can put this creature in on or off mode, that is, if the lizard feels that it is having difficulty in surviving with its legs, then when it feels the need, it turns off that sonikhetchog so that its future generations do not survive. They are born with legs, whereas if a lizard feels that it can survive with legs, then this organism remains on and the coming generations also keep developing legs.

If you put this creature on or off in any mode, it still remains in the creature's enfield. Due to these qualities, lizards have maintained their existence for a long time, otherwise dinosaurs have come and gone but lizards are still in existence. Of all the creatures found around the world, the snake's body is considered to be the most beneficial, this is because apart from crawling on the ground, this creature can also climb steep slopes like the brown snake.

Brown Snake 

Yes, the brown snake can climb any steep slope very easily. Actually, this snake wraps its tail around any pillar or tree. After wrapping its prey in this way, this snake slowly climbs a tree or pole. can climb very easily.

Let us tell you that the entire body of snakes is made of muscles and there are plans i.e. grooves made on their stomach  navel. Due to these grooves, these snakes can easily grip any surface. We can say that muscles provide strength to their body and grooves help them to grip any surface.

Grooves help grip any surface Like snakes, they can easily climb stairs and it is common for them to enter people's houses, that is why these snakes are considered very dangerous.

Apart from living above the ground, snakes can also spend their time underground in sand and pits.

Snake hiding Underground 

However, snakes are known to survive underground as well as by hiding in the hot sand of the desert.

Snake living inside sand

Not only this, unlike other animals, some snakes can also fly in the air.

Paradise snake

Paradise snakes, which live on palm trees, wait for their prey by sitting on the top of the trees and then as soon as they see the prey, they immediately jump. Let us tell you that these snakes can fly about 10 meters long at a time and float in the air with their entire body by making an S shape in the air. Due to swinging, these snakes can also change their direction in the air and attack their prey by getting as close as possible.

The body of all the snakes found around the world is also very flexible, that is why if a predatory bird tries to fly away by holding the snake in its claws, then due to its flexible body the snake is successful in saving itself by counter-attacking it.

While other small creatures lizards and fish cannot do this, snakes are also very good swimmers. Actually, snakes are able to do this because of the special of groove found under their body.

Snakes Swimming

Not only this, due to its grooves almost every snake can run very easily even on a smooth surface.

Snake on Plan surface

Snakes are cold planet creatures, that is, according to the temperature of the outside environment, the temperature inside their body also changes, that is, in hot weather, they feel very hot and in very cold places, they feel very cold, yet despite the weather. Are able to adapt themselves accordingly.

This is the reason that snakes can easily live in almost every part of the world and in every type of climate, including sea, desert, land, forest etc. Only they cannot tolerate the freezing cold of the North and South Pole, this is the reason. That no species of snake is found here.

So you have seen how snake species keep changing their body according to different environment and time and also keep developing different skills according to their need, that is why snakes are called master of evolution.

Therefore, snakes always remain a subject of curiosity for scientists and researchers. There is always a desire to know more about them. Snakes, which have been continuously and rapidly changing over time, have continued to exist on Earth for a long time, and there are still snakes among them. Changes are happening continuously and who knows, there may be changes in the snake's body in the coming future.
