Happy World Snake Day 2019
Happy World Snake Day! Snakes are incredible creatures that have been unfairly given a bad reputation, in addition to nicknames like “danger noodle” and “nope rope”. There are at least 3,500 species of snakes dwelling in habitats around the world: from the icy habitats of northern Canada to humid rainforests, dry deserts, and also in many of the world’s oceans. Only about 600 species are venomous, with only a small portion of those being dangerous to humans. They can be as tiny as several centimeters in length to longer than nine meters! Snakes are important predators and are crucial ecological contributors to the habitats in which they live. Love them or hate them, snakes are amazing. So, be brave and show respect and dare I say, admiration, for these fascinating creatures! #JungleDragon
