Snakes get hydration from the food they eat. Sometimes they also drink water, although they don't lap it up with their tongue like many other animals do. Folds of skin are found inside of a snake's mouth to help when they expand it around prey. These folds also act like sponges, sucking up water using capillary action. Muscles then squeeze the folds empty in the back of the throat. Watch closely as our ratsnake celebrates #thirstythursday Amazing! Want to see more? Join us on Fridays at 1pm at t
