Snakes are long reptiles with certain features in which certain snakes are categorised as venomous or non-venomous.

There are no particular distinctions between venomous and non-venomous snakes but unlike venomous snakes, the non-venomous ones cannot bite through clothing. Additionally, there are certain snakes such as the rat snakes that do not harm and instead help in keeping the rodent and insect population down.
