DID YOU KNOW!?
Snakes DO NOT dislocate their jaws to eat!
Most people think snakes unhinge or “pop” their jaws out so they can swallow big meals… but that’s a myth!
Snakes actually have super flexible ligaments and multiple skull bones that move independently, which let them stretch their mouths wide without any dislocation at all.
And that big “yawn” they do after eating?
They’re not popping anything back in they’re just realigning their jaw bones into place.
Nature is wild, hey?
