Snakes inhabit nearly every imaginable terrestrial environment, moving with ease under many conditions that would thwart other animals. Several facets of their functional diversity could have applications for bioinspired design. Here, we review snake locomotor behavior with a focus on biomechanics and environmental context, and then discuss the ...
