I can't imagine whatever the problem could be, though I've read about 9 of the books by now.
For as far as my knowlegde of snakes (i.e. forked tongues) is, it doesn't hamper the way it eats nor does it have any other way it could affect it's way of living.
By the way, is there a thread about the facetted eyes? I kinda like this 'scientific' discussions.  |
Actually one of the other threads had mentioned that the forked tongue was for olfactory processes, smell and taste. but sensory input would use too much of brain for skull size and level of intelligence. I'm not sure which thread had it though.
