Enjoy a unique wallpaper featuring scaly snakes up close and personal!

The sight of a snake is enough to strike fear into the heart of many people, however these legless reptiles are actually fascinating and beautiful creatures! While some snakes (such as poisonous rattlesnakes or powerful anacondas) truly can be dangerous to humans and other animals, many snakes (such as the common gardener snake) are perfectly harmless!

Without legs to walk, snakes have evolved a unique way of slithering across the ground by contracting their muscles in a specific rhythm that makes their body move in an S shape to power them forward. This may sound hard, but snakes are pros at this unique form of movement! And that's not the only unique thing about snakes. Imagine taking off all of your skin...strange, right? Not to a snake! Snakes shed their skin as often as every few months. This shedding, or moulting, is intended to remove old worn out skin and also rid the snake of any parasites such as ticks that might have attached themselves to the snakes external layer of scales. The ability of snakes to shed their skin has led to their common use as a symbol of transformation, immortality and healing.

From black and tan snakes designed to blend into the sandy desert to bright green jungle snakes, you'll find it all in this app! Find your favorite snake wallpaper today!
