Tentacled Snakes are purely aquatic snake as they cannot move well on land. They still do breathe air, coming up for a big breathe every 30 minutes! They are very flat and have two scaly tentacles protruding from their face, giving them their name. The tentacles help to detect the presence of other animals, predator or prey. Tentacled Snakes have very rough, keeled scales and dark natural coloration to help them look like a waterlogged stick. This helps them hide from predators, but also helps them hide from prey. They are ambush hunters, meaning they stay very still, only using small waves in their bodies to push the fish towards their mouth before they strike.
