The suuta suuta, or curl snake, is a small venomous snake that lives in arid regions of Australia. During the day, it hides in shelters, coiling into a tight ring, and at night it goes out to hunt.
Curl snake differs from other Australian snakes by its habit of tightly coiling into a ring when in danger or resting. It is important for nature because it helps control the population of lizards and small rodents.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
