About once a month snakes shed their skin, a process called ecdysis that makes room for growth and gets rid of parasites. They rub against a tree branch or other object, then slither out of their skin head first, leaving it discarded inside-out.
Most snakes lay eggs, but some species—like sea snakes—give live birth to young. Very few snakes pay any attention to their eggs, with the exception of pythons, which incubate their eggs.
There are roughly a hundred snake species listed by the IUCN Red List as endangered, typically due to habitat loss from development.
Here’s a fact to make ophidiophobes feel uneasy: Five species of snakes can fly.
