Weird, tubular animals or geniuses of evolution?
While Collie feeds his various constrictors, we hear how snakes are THE ultimate survivors.
The can unhinge their jaws to swallow enormous prey items. They also have wily ways with their windpipes that stops them suffocating when ingesting a huge meal.
And, when it comes to defending themselves, they have some stinky weapons up their, er, sleeves.
Oh, and they have two penises. Seriously.
Snakes rock.
