The snake population is speedily being destroyed to make way for human dwellings or industry.They are also being driven out of their habitat by the introduction of exotic animal species, and are getting contaminated by pesticides too. In the United States, more than half of the snake species currently listed as endangered have declined as a direct result of habitat destruction.
Why should I be aware of this?
--Snakes play a critical role in our environment, because of their role in the food chain.
--Different types of snakes perform different roles.
--Numerous snakes are top level predators, for example, a single rat snake lands up eating over a 100 rats annually.
--They perform a crucial function in controlling insect and other invertebrate populations.
--Snakes in turn are food for other predators, such as foxes and hawks, and so discharge an important role in linking higher and lower feeding levels.
