Paragraph on “How can a snake eat a pig?” complete paragraph for Class 9, Class 10, Class 11 and Class 12

How can a snake eat a pig?

 

Unlike many other animals, snake cannot chew their food before they swallow it, and so anything they eat must be swallowed whole. But how does a snake manage to eat some- thing as big as, say, a pig? Surely it’s mouth is much too small?

Although a snake does have a small mouth, its jaws are not connected together like those of many animals, and because of this, it  can stretch its mouth open enormously wide. The picture of the rattlesnake will give you an idea of how wide a snake can open its mouth , and if you imagine that it can stretch its body almost as wide, it soon becomes easy to see how a snake manages to eat such large meals.

The crocodile is another reptile which can also open its mouth very wide, (however unlike the snake its jaws are connected) and although it can swallow small prey whole, it often tears off smaller pieces of food by shaking its head violently.
