Venomous Snake Skeleton – Gloydius halys

The skeleton of a snake is made up almost entirely of vertebrae and rib bones. Its vertebrae are divided into two parts: the precaudal vertebrae, which are attached to its ribs, and the caudal vertebrae, which are not attached to ribs and comprise the tail.

The skull of a snake has many joints that allow the snake to open it jaw wide enough to swallow prey much larger than its head. The Siberian or Pallas pit viper is a venomous pit viper that can be found from Russia, east of the Urals, through northern and central China.

The Evolution Store also carries non-venomous snake skeletons!
