A snake is a reptile without legs. A reptile usually has scales, lays eggs, breathes air, and doesn't spend much time taking care of its babies. It is also cold-blooded, which means that its body doesn't stay the same temperature all the time.
Snakes get very cold on winter days and very hot in the summer.
Because of this, snakes usually stay in burrows during very hot and cold weather. A burrow is a hole in the ground where they can live. There are no snakes that can eat people in Florida. Small snakes eat bugs and frogs. Larger ones eat fish, birds, mice, and rabbits.
