by Kids Discover

Sea snakes sort of look like eels, but they don’t have gills, so they have to surface to breathe. These venomous reptiles spend most of their lives in water — usually in the shallow, warmer parts of the Indian and Pacific oceans. Most species lay their eggs in water. (Adrian Kaye / Shutterstock)
