Snake-Like Locomotion

Snake-like locomotion refers to the way snakes move by using their bodies to push against the ground or other surfaces. They utilize various techniques, such as lateral undulation, where they create S-shaped curves that allow them to move forward by pushing against objects. Other modes include concertina movement, where they bunch and extend their bodies, and sidewinding, used in sandy environments. This unique movement enables snakes to navigate diverse terrains efficiently, whether in grass, water, or rocky areas, showcasing their adaptability and evolutionary design for survival.
