Moves silently and stealthily. Eats the eggs of birds, such as PIDGEY and SPEAROW, whole.
It can freely de tach its jaw to swallow large prey whole. It can be come too heavy to move, however.
EKANS curls itself up in a spiral while it rests. Assuming this position allows it to quickly respond to a threat from any direction with a glare from its upraised head.
It sneaks through grass without making a sound and strikes unsuspecting prey from behind.
It sneaks through grass without making a sound and strikes unsuspecting prey from behind.
The older it gets, the longer it grows. At night, it wraps its long body around tree branches to rest.
By dislocating its jaw, it can swallow prey larger than itself. After a meal, it curls up and rests.
