10 interesting facts about snakes that you never knew (+Pics)

2. The Claw Footed Snake

Scientists of West Normal University in Nanchang, China were quite surprised to have found a dead snake with a foot sticking out. The snake was discovered and killed by a 66-year-old Chinese woman named Dean Qiongxiu. They conducted an autopsy but surprisingly the results were not made public. Snakes with legs are not as unlikely as we think. The fact that serpents had once had legs, ages ago, is evident by the remains of hips and limbs on their skeleton. Under favourable circumstance (like polluted ambience), evolution can again bring back the power for serpents to crawl the earth.
