Aquatic snakes are a diverse group of snakes that have adapted to living in or near water. They can be found in various habitats, including rivers, lakes, and oceans. Some well-known examples include the water moccasin and the sea snake. These snakes have specialized bodies that help them swim efficiently, often featuring flattened tails and streamlined shapes. Many aquatic snakes are excellent hunters, preying on fish, amphibians, and other aquatic animals. They possess unique adaptations, such as the ability to hold their breath for extended periods and specialized scales that reduce drag in the water. These adaptations make them well-suited for their aquatic environments.
