Snakes are reptiles (cold-blooded creatures). They belong to the same group as lizards
(the scaled group, Squamata) but from a sub-group of their own (Serpentes).
Snakes have two legs but a long time ago they had claws to help them slither along.
Snakes are not slimy. They are covered in scales which are just bumps on the skin.
Their skin is hard and glossy to reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground.

Snakes often sun bathe on rocks in the warm weather. This is because snakes are cold-
blooded; they need the sun’s warmth to heat their bodies up.
Most snakes live in the country. Some types of snakes live in tress, some live in water,
but most live on the ground in deserted rabbit burrows, in thick, long grass and in old
logs.
A snake’s diet usually consists of frogs, lizard, and mice and other snakes. The
Anaconda can eat small crocodiles and even bears. Many snakes protect themselves
with their fangs. Some snakes are protected by scaring their enemies away like the
Cobra. The flying snakes glide away from danger. Their ribs spread apart and the skin

Essay
Whales are sea-living mammals. They therefore breathe air but cannot survive or land.
Some species are very large indeed and the blue whale, which can exceed 30 meter
length, is the largest animal which lives on earth. Superficially, the whale looks rather
like a fish, but there are important difference in its external structure; its tail consists of a
pair of broad, flat horizontal paddles (the tail of a fish is vertical) and it has a single
nostril on top of its breadth, broad head. The skin is smooth and shiny and beneath it lies
a layer of flat (blubber). This is up to 30 meter in thickness and serves to conserve heat
and body fluids.
