In the words of Indiana Jones, "snakes! I hate snakes!" I don't actually hate snakes, but they do make me a bit nervous. Fortunately, I live in a cold climate that has
few snakes and no native venomous snakes. The question of why venomous snakes live in warm climates is the focus of
this video from Veritasium. The answer is much more complicated than I anticipated.
Applications for EducationWhy Do Venomous Snakes Live In Warm Climates? could be the jumping-off point for lessons on biodiversity and adaptation to climate. The video also provides a great example of how statistics don't always tell the full story.
