Rolling without wheels: How dwarf reedsnakes coordinate their bodies for high-speed escapes
Small snakes called dwarf reedsnakes can escape danger by rolling rapidly along the ground. Researchers investigated how they perform this unusual form of locomotion using multi-angle video analyses. The results show that the snakes use precisely coordinated body movements that k
