Snake can be found while visiting the National Park in Katherine. Snakes are reptiles; they are close family to lizards. Snake is known from the old English word “snaca”. There are some lizards which are legless that really looks like snakes. There are people who really love snakes they are called “ophiophilia”, those who are afraid of them are called “ophidiophobia” and someone who make scientific studies on snakes is called an “ophiologist”. The word “serpent” is an old synonym for snake but which is also used in French language. The snake is a reptile that is not well known till now as that snake has fragile and small skeleton which makes fossilization not easy.
