There are innumerable things that are so strange that we don’t even want to know the reason for their existence. We just accept a lot of things in face value and move on to relatable things which are easily grasped.
One of the many things that are in existence includes the behavior of the cold blooded reptile, Snake.
Despite having no ears, snakes dances to the tunes of snake charmer.
Today we are going to reveal this fact, which some of you might know. However, continue reading to reaffirm your knowledge, in case you have doubts.
You may have seen many times that whenever the snake charmer plays the bean (the pipe instrument), snake comes out immediately and starts swaying to the rhythm.
Snakes don’t have ears so they cannot catch the tune in the air waves present in the atmosphere. They however have a magnificent way to capture vibrations through a special bone found in their jaw. Snakes can catch a vibration close to 500 meters away depending on the species and this makes them top predators.
Snakes can also see movement through their special eyes. Therefore, when the snake charmer plays the bean around it the snake moves to the movement of the pipe and the vibration that it records on ground. Hence the dance of the snake and the mystery here solved.
