North American Herpetology Or A Description Of The Reptiles Inhabiting The United States Vol 3 Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from North American Herpetology, or a Description of the Reptiles Inhabiting the United States, Vol. 3 Serpents form a very natural order, as they present peculiar anatomical and natural characters. Of all reptiles, they best merit the name, as they creep only by alternate folds of their long and slender bodies, and though deprived of feet, or obvious external organs of locomotion, they glide swiftly on the ground, ascend trees, move rapidly along their branches, and even swim with great facility.
