My conclusion

Snakes are not bad animals for humans or nature. They are really precious and amazing. There are so many humans who kill snakes. Snakes are scared of humans and others animals that's why they bite. And snakes are often hungry. They eat when they see small animals and insects too.

VIDAL Stéphane 4°2

What to do?

When you see a snake ?

When you see a snake: do not catch it or touch it. If you are bitten, do not panic and if it sees you moving quickly, it will think you are trying to beat it. Do not touch or kill it. Just keep an eye on it in to home or in the garden then and close it in a room and take your mobile phone and call the forest department and they'll come to take the snake .

Reproduction of the snake

Even if, all types of reproduction modes are used by snakes. All snakes use an internal fertilization. To reproduce most of the snakes meet in mid-sping. The male snakes use their tonues to detect pheromones of the fema. There will be a brief fight for the female snake among the male snakes. The male snake has two penises also called heipenses which is located under his tail. And the female has a cloaco. Most species lay eggs, though most snakes abandon their eggs shortly after laying them. But, a unique species like King cobra actually contructs a nest and stay in the area of hatchling after incubation the female King cobra deposit up to 20 to 40 eggs, she will stay with her eggs in every emergencies. When she feels that her eggs are going to hatch, she will leave the nest and find something to eat. So that she doesn't eat her babies.


Hema 4ème 2

FOOD

Certain snakes are in villas they eat eggs and milk. In the forest snakes eat little snakes, small insects, rats and frogs.

Christina 4°2

Shedding

Snakes shed when their skin is too small for them, and then it serve for removing parasites like mites and ticks.
when the snake shed the color of the skin changes. Moulting takes a long time in a snake life so before a moult the snake stops eating and goes to a safer place. And just before shedding the skin becomes dry. The old skin breaks near the mouth and the snake comes out helped by rubbing itself against a rought surface.

Reproduction of snakes

First of all, reproduction is to produce a new human being. Female snakes release phermones so that the male can know that it is the time to reproduce. When the female and the male meet, they reproduce with their sexual organes (male: hemipenis, female: cloaco). There are often fights between males to have the opportunity to reproduce. The strongest gets that opportunity.

Calaimady 4e2

Shedding

Snake skin isn't "flexible", that means that snakes grow up but their skin doesn't. So, they have to get rid of it, that is called: shedding.
Snakes get rid of their skin also to get rid of parasites, which is very intelligent !
But of course, when snakes get rid of their skin, it is replaced directly by another one bigger.

Eva Dojcinovic 4°2

In the press

There were lots of people in the SN1 classroom to see the snakes and to know about the different types of snakes. We touched the python, ratle snake etc... and we saw a cobra. It was terrifying to see it and the press take photos of the snake and the forest department officer had also come to explain about snakes.

FRANKLIN 4éme2

by Nazreen, 4ème3

all snakes food

All snakes are carnivorous, eating small animals, birds or insects. Snakes do not chew their food.
Snakes have very flexible lower jaws, the two halves of which are not rigidly attached, allowing them to open their mouths wide enough to swallow their prey whole, even if is larger in diameter their the snakes itself.Contrary to the popular myth, at no point do they "unginge" their jaws ( disarticulate their mandibular joints). After eating, snakes become torpid while the process of digestion takes place.

snake food

A boa eats mice, rabbits or chikens. Snakes want their food alive? They like to kill and eat it. All snakes are carnivorous and eat small animals, birds, insects and other invertebrates. In general a snake feeds on any creature. That is their habit. they may change their choice as per the season. If a prey is too small or big of them, they may not go for it.
Indhumathy 4ème3

What to do?

If you see a snake :
Don't move, don't scream, you should go back slowly, don't attack it, you shouldn't run and don't be exited .
If a snake has bitten you: you should tie a bandage around your arm to stop the blood from circulating. Then untie it every 10 minutes and go to the hospital.

Call the forest departement

By Rishi Saravanan 4ème3

Me and snakes

Have you ever touched a snake??? No? I will tell you how is it! So, at first it's creepy and cold because it's a cold blooded animal. If you ever see a snake or a little disturbing animal... Don't worry just call the forest departement: 04132204808.
If a snake has bitten you, first of all stay calm do not be frightened or the blood with the venon will go faster in your heart and you will die so there's nothing to worry about ^^...just do as I SAY : tie a towel around your arm or leg (it depends of where the snake bite is on the body ), to stop the blood from circulating then untie it every 10min !!!

conclude

Hi! I am Deephak and I am going to conclude about the snakes.
Snakes usually don't have ears so so you can speak loudly when you are in front of a snake but they can smell the vibration and they got eyes to see us. Snakes are calm when they are in caves... but when they are under the sunlight they are angry. Snakes live in a dark place (ex:cave, forest...). All the snakes lay eggs but some of them eat their own eggs.

the vet school

The students of 9th grade have gone to a weterinary college in pondy. So we took the bus from the school on 14,december at 2p.m. Our sciences teacher and our English teacher were coming with us . We were going to visit the anotomies of animals and birds. After 45 minutes we reached the college. Mr.Vishva, a student of that college had invited us to his college. We walked for 2Km. First we went to visit the bull's family and also there were some buffalos. Then we visited the white pigs,t he mice and the rats. And we were going to see the goats, malabar and the sheep in their pen. The hens, the cocks and the chiks. MR.Vishva asked to us who wanted to see a baby snake. All of us wanted to see one .He took a baby red sand boa out of his pocket. It was red. Some of our class took it in their hands. Finally we went to the museum departement.And we reach our school.

My class 4ème3

I'm in 4ème3 , we're 27 in our class. Everyone says that our class is very curious to ask question and to touch the animals. This year we have 2 new students from France (at the beginning they had some diffilculties in English but after not they passed one semester). Normally the others are old students of the Lycée, so I think that they don't have any difficulty to read my article. If you want me to talk about our teachers I can just say that they are amazing.
Two weeks ago we met snakes with Vishva (a future veterinary). Everyone was interrested to touch those snakes except two or three girls who were afraid of snakes, I can say that I was one of those girls.
And 2 days ago, we went to a trip with the 4ème2 to meet other animals . the trip was just fabulous, we met some new animals. Ok, I think I've presented my class . Ok thanks!!

snakes and me

Snakes are very nice. I like snakes.
When I thouched it the filling was amazing. The skin of the snake was too cold, too hard and too soft. When I saw it for the first time I was scared but today I am not scared I want to toutch them again. I wanted to catch the snake like a dog but I can't because that was a big python.
if you see a snake don't be afraid, it will not be dangerous.

SELVAM Marie-José 4e3

What to do?

When you see a snake, DON'T MOVE. You will excite and scare the snake. Then you will call to the forest departement of your city. If the snake bites you, you will take a scarf and press in you hand and release it every 10min. Then go rapidly to hospital. If the poison is going in all in your hand the doctor will cut your hand. SO HURRY!

Venomous or not bites + first aid

How to recognize a venomous snake bite ?

If you see two big holes (see picture), it's a venomous snake bite.

What are the first aids in case of a venomous snake bite ?

1. First of all, call for emergency assistance. It is very crucial to get help quickly.
2. Immobilize the bitten area and be aware to keep it below the heart.
3. Wash the bite gently with soap and water.

If it's (really) impossible to get medical help within 30 minutes, then :

1. Wrap a bandage at about 5 to 10 cm above the snake bite to help to stop the poison's effect, but this should not stop the blood flow.
2. A suction device must be placed over the bite to suck up the snake's poison. This device can often be found in a first aid to snake bites box.

How to prevent accidents with snakes ?

You must leave snakes alone. Most accidents happen when people try to kill them or to get closer to them. Also, beware of tall grass. Be careful where you put your hands and your feet. Before picking up rocks or firewood, be aware not to be at a snake's striking distance. It is also recommended to wear thick leather boots and to remain in the hiking path. And, of course, be careful and alert when you climb rocks.

Mating

Reproduction of Snakes

Snakes find their partner during mating. They mate at the beginning of spring.

The female snakes sends signals which attrack the males.

When many ma

les come, there are fights. At the beginning they move nearer and they have to catch their " enemies" and they have to be on the back of the other snake.

The winner can mate with the female.

When they meet each other, the snakes move to be nearer, and the male crawls along the back on the female. If she is receptive, she is going to have seizures then she will raise her tail for the copulation. The copulation can take 45 minutes to an hour.

No snakes in Ireland?

Why Ireland Has No Snakes:
Legend has it that St. Patrick drove all the snakes from Ireland. Sometime back in the fifth century he stood on a hill, the story goes, and used a staff to herd the slithering creatures into the sea, banishing them for eternity. It's true, aside from zoos and pets, there are no snakes on the emerald isle. In fact, there never were any snakes in Ireland. This state of affairs probably has more to do with the vagaries of geography than any neat tricks performed by St. Patty.
