The snake's makeover is to shed its slime!

Trending: To throw off the sludge is to give the snake a makeover! You should be aware that from time to time the snake sheds its slime, i.e. its old skin. But have you ever wondered why a snake does this? The process of shedding the skin of a snake is called ‘shedding’ or ‘molting’ in English. For snakes to continue growing, it is important for them to shed their old skin. This is because the snake’s skin does not grow with its body. When a snake’s body grows, its old skin begins to shrink, so it loses its old skin. As the snake grows, new skin begins to form under its old skin. When the old skin dries, the snake removes it by rubbing it against a rough surface. Before a snake’s skin sheds, it often looks dull and cloudy. The color of their eyes also turns pale blue. Before shedding its skin, the snake’s activity also decreases and it tries to hide. By removing the mucus, the snake gets a new, clean and soft skin and at the same time it also gets rid of the bacteria and parasites that have accumulated on the body. Not only snakes shed their skin, but many types of lizards, insects and crabs also shed their old skin. By removing the skin, the snake gets a new and shiny skin. This is nothing less than a makeover for the snake. Click here for more stories of life and style Click here
