How do snakes eat if they do not have teeth?
Snakes have a bendy lower jaw. They can open their mouths very vast and swallow prey that is larger than they are. After a big meal, a snake strikes very slowly, so that the prey can be digested. Digestion wishes so much strength that some snakes, like the Mexican rattlesnake, amplify their temperature by 14 °C (57 °F). Once digestion is complete, a snake excretes the hair and claws of its prey. Snakes cannot digest plants.
