Featured Videos

The
Kingsnake
The Kingsnake
gets its name from its habit of eating other snakes, and is most
famous for eating rattlesnakes, copperheads and coral snakes. But it
also feeds on other snakes, lizards, birds and their eggs, small
mammals, turtles and frogs.

The Desert Food Chain
A food chain
constitutes a complex network of organisms, from plants to animals,
through which energy, derived from the sun, flows in the form of
organic matter and dissipates in the form of waste heat.
