What are snakes?

Snakes are legless, carnivorous reptiles belonging to the suborder Serpentes. They are found on every continent except Antarctica and are known for their elongated, flexible bodies covered in overlapping scales. Snakes play important roles in their ecosystems as both predators and prey, and they vary widely in size, habitat, and behavior. While some species are venomous, most are harmless to humans. Snakes have developed unique adaptations for hunting, movement, and survival.
