Snakes are the most modern of reptiles. They first appear in the fossil record during the time of the dinosaurs. Their fossil history is not very well known because snake skeletons are very delicate and do not fossilize easily. By carefully examining what they have found and comparing it to other close relatives such as lizards, scientists have been able to construct a theory about their evolution. Snakes, like all living things have evolved, which allows them to adapt over time in response to the environment and other factors to produce entirely new species. This is known as natural selection. Those animals with superior traits live longest and reproduce. Snakes are thought to have evolved originally from a group of ancient amphibians knows as the labrynthodonts. They were called that because of their distinctive teeth, which were shaped, in a mazelike pattern. Reptiles developed from these amphibians as a result of shelled eggs which were able to be laid on land and did not require water. These reptiles began a burrowing way of life. They tunneled though dirt in search of earthworms and other food. Over millions of years they lost their external limbs and their ears so they were able to burrow more easily.
