Understanding how animals interact with their environment across life stages is key for conservation. In our long‐term study of the Blunt‐headed tree snake (Imantodes cenchoa) in the tropical rainforest of Los Tuxtlas, Mexico, we tracked over 240 individuals and found age‐related differences in environmental preferences.

Snake head shape is weakly constrained by phylogeny but strongly influenced by ecology. Significant convergence was detected in fossorial and aquatic snakes, while diet mainly drove morphological variation without convergence. ABSTRACT Morphological convergence—where distantly related species evolve similar traits in response to shared ecological ...
