Reptiles with unusual hunting methods

 Reptiles are the quite hunters.


Here is the list of reptiles each employing an unique method to catch its prey.


1.  Alligators and Crocodile

          These are patient hunters often waiting motionless in water.



2.   Chameleon 

         These are the precision hunters and they use their rapid tongue extension to snatch the insects from the distance.





3.  Geckoes

            They use their adhesive toe pad to climb smoothly and ambush their prey from the above.




4.  Python 

             They coil around their prey and suffocate it. Then they swallow whole of the prey.



5.  Sea snakes 

                They hunt in coral reefs, using their venom to instantly immobalize the fish.
