Snake Motion
hi<ref>uh</ref>
Snakes are reptiles that are able to adapt their movement to various environments. Furthermore, snakes can even move across extreme environments such as sand, mud and water. Research has discovered that there are four types of snake motion. As shown in the image, these motions include serpentine movement, rectilinear movement, concertina movement and side-winding movement.<ref name="Locomotion">Ma, Shugen.
