Timber Rattlesnake\n(Crotalus horridus)\n\nMeasuring from 3-4.5 feet (91-137 cm) or more in length, the timber rattlesnake is the largest venomous snake in New York. The record length is 74 ½ inches (189 cm). Timber rattlers impress one as being very stocky; they are large snakes. Despite their size, cryptic coloration allows them to be easily concealed. Two color patterns are commonly found: a yellow phase, which has black or dark brown crossbands on a lighter background color of yellow, brown or gray, and a black phase, which has dark crossbands on a dark background. Black or dark brown stippling also occurs to varying degrees, to the extent that some individuals appear all black. Scales are ridged, giving this rattlesnake a rough-skinned appearance. The timber rattler has a broadly triangular head with many small scales on the crown of the head bordered by a few large scales, unlike the massasauga rattlesnake which has nine large scales on the top of the head.\n\nLike other members of the pit-viper family, the timber rattlesnake has a temperature- sensitive opening, or pit, on either side of the face between and a little below the eye and nostril. This sensory organ is used to detect prey and potential predators. Another feature distinctive of rattlesnakes is the rattle itself. This structure is made of loosely attached horny segments. A new segment is added each time the snake sheds. When vibrated, the rattle makes a buzzing sound characteristic of a disturbed rattlesnake.\n\nFor more info go to http://www.dec.state.ny.us/website/dfwmr/wildlife/endspec/tirafs.html

The dental formula for hippos (Hippopotamus amphibius) is I 2-3/1-3, C 1/1, P 4/4, M 3/3. \nThis indicates that in each half-jaw they have 2 or 3 upper incisors and 1 to 3 lower incisors, one upper and one lower canine, four upper and 4 lower premolars, and 3 upper and 3 lower molars. Consequently, the total number of teeth varies between 38 and 44 (the total number is obtained by adding the numbers in the dental formula and multiplying x 2).\n\nhttp://animaldiversity.ummz.umich.edu/site/accounts/information/Hippopotamidae.html

If snakes evolved from land dwelling creatures, then those land dwelling creatures evolved from sea creatures.  After all, humans evolved on land.

No, it's not poisonous. The rattle is formed by pieces of keratin (the same horny substance that forms our nails and the snake's scales). The rattlesnake does not have a rattle when it is born, but it has a terminal keratinized "knob" in the tail. When it sheds its skin for the first time, a new bulbous segment is added to this "knob" so that the old one is held by the new (2º) element, which has a shape that fits inside the first. The segments are loosely fitted and therefore the structure rattles when the snake shakes the tip of the tail. With successive molts, new segments are added to the rattle, but usually the older pieces (the ones closer to the tip of the rattle) get damaged and lost. An adult rattlesnake rarely has more than 8-10 segments (captive individuals usually have much longer rattles, because they're not damaged by natural factors). That's the reason why the nº of segments in a rattle cannot be used to estimate the age of the animal.\n\nHowever, any snake that has a rattle is indeed poisonous. The rattle is a warning from the snake; they don't prey on people but they will defend themselves.

How does the snake's vertebra indicate that it evolved to support slithering? (Answer: Snakes have a large number of vertebrae, which are connected together by ball-and socket joints. These characteristics allow extreme flexibility. Together with specialized muscles, the vertebra enable the snake to move with speed and agility. See ref.)

OH, you mean CANINE TEETH.\n\nSpelling is important if you wish to be understood child.\n\nFirst off snakes don't have canines. Most mammals do have canines, including humans.\n\nCanines are the elongated, sharply pointed teeth near the front of the jaw. They are commonly called fangs although that name is incorrect since fangs are hollow teeth and canines are always solid.\n\nCanines are designed to allow predatory animals to grasp prey. They are sharp so they can puncture skin and muscle when the animal bites, and they are long so that when they go in they won't slip out until the animal opens its jaw.\n\nSome herbivorous animals also retain their canines from their more carnivorous ancestors. The largest canines belong to the African hippopotamus, and although hippos are vegetarians their canines are over a foot and half in length. Hippos use their canines for fighting other hippos rather than for catching prey.\n\nCelbone canines are not used for tearing. They are used for gripping. The incisors and premolars and incisors are used for tearing.

Domestic dogs have 42 teeth, as do wild dogs in the genus Canis.  The bat eared fox has 52 teeth, but some wild dogs have less than 40.  The names are the same as they are for all mammals:  molars, premolars, canines and incisors.  The 4th upper premolar and 1st lower molar compromise the carnassial "scissors" that enable carnivores to slice up flesh.

Snakes have internal ears.Although these are not as well developed, they can sense ground vibrations.\n\nHearing: Snakes can hear but this sense is not as well-developed as its other senses.Snakes don't have external ears or even a middle ear. They only have a small bone (columella) which connects the jaw bone to the inner ear canals. These inner ear canals work superbly as the snake moves in three dimensions! A snake picks up sound through the skin which passes on to this jaw bone.There are also indications that the lung may act as a sound receptor.\nTongue is used for detecting chemicals in the air

night snake (Hypsiglena torquata)\n\nOrder: Squamata\nFamily: Colubridae (colubrid snakes)\nSpanish names: culebra\n\nDistinguishing Features\nThis small 12 to 26 inch (30 to 66 cm) snake has a triangular-shaped head, a dark eyestripe, and elliptical pupils; it is often mistaken for a young rattlesnake. The night snake is easily distinguished from the latter by a tail that tapers to a point and the absence of a rattle. The night snake has a pair of large, dark brown or black blotches on the neck immediately behind the head. It is pale gray, light brown, or beige with dark gray, brown, or black blotches on the back and sides; the underside is white. \n\n \nRange \nThe range of this snake extends from British Columbia through the western United States and south to Guerrero, Mexico.\n\nHabitat \nA habitat generalist, the night snake is found in rocky areas of grassland, chaparral, desertscrub, woodland, moist mountain meadows, and thornscrub from sea level to 8700 feet (2650 m). \n\nLife History \nSeldom encountered during the day, this nocturnal snake is often seen crossing roads at night. The night snake preys upon lizards, small snakes, frogs, salamanders, and small mice, which it subdues with its mild venom; this venom poses no threat to humans. Young night snakes feed upon insects. If disturbed, the night snake raises its head and weaves, hisses, and flattens its neck in threat. Two to 9 eggs are laid spring through summer.\n------------------------------------\nNight Snake \nHypsiglena torquata \n\nThe Night Snake is at home in a wide variety of climates, from the temperate northwestern United States to tropical Mexico. Like other snakes that are active after dark, it has vertical pupils. It is seen most frequently crossing warm back roads at night. It feeds on lizards, snakes, and frogs. While harmless to humans, the Night Snake has enlarged, grooved teeth that hold prey while a mild venom subdues it.\n\nLook For: A tan to gray snake with dark spots on back and a pair of large dark blotches on the neck. Vertical pupils.\n\nLength: 12-26".\n\nHabitat: Deserts, grasslands, chaparral, brushlands, mountain meadows.\n\nRange: Most of California, eastern Oregon, and Washington south through Nevada and Utah to central Texas.\n---------------------------------------\nKey Characteristics \nBronze/copper eye color, with a vertical pupil \nSmooth scales \nSmall size \nTan ground color with brown saddles/blotches \n\nGeneral Description:\nNight Snakes are smooth scaled snakes with striking bronze/copper colored eyes that have vertical pupils.  These features help distinguish them from Gopher Snakes, which are similarly colored but have keeled scales and round pupils.  Night Snakes have a dorsal coloration that consists of a tan ground color that is marked by contrasting brown saddles and lateral (side) spots.  The darker brown color also extends from the eyes onto the neck and forms a blotch at the base of the head.  This dark eye-line contrasts with the light (white or cream) colored labial area.  Night Snakes have a solid, pearly-white ventral coloration that is usually iridescent.  Night Snakes are mildly venomous (although not dangerous to humans), and when they are threatened they may coil their body and thrust the coils towards the offender.  While in this defensive posture, the head is flattened into a triangular shape.\n\nNight Snakes are small snakes, generally less than 61 cm (24 in.) in total length (Storm and Leonard 1995).\n\nNight Snakes, like most other snakes from Idaho, mate in the spring and lay 3-9 eggs that hatch later in the summer (Storm and Leonard 1995).  The juveniles resemble the adults.\n\nHabitat:\nNight Snakes are nocturnal, making them difficult to find.  They can be encountered by turning objects or during the night on desert roads.  These snakes inhabit desert lowlands that generally have a rocky component, although they can be found in areas lacking rocks, provided there are rodent burrows (Storm

I do now they replace their teeth every 6-8 weeks allowing the front row to drop out and a new row to come up behind. They typically have 2-4 rows of teeth showing at any one time. This means that the shark goes through thousands of teeth and hundreds of rows in a lifetime.\n\nThey must shed atleast 50,000 teeth then...if you're counting. Its one reason why prehistoric shark teeth are the most commonly found fossils.
