California's Death Valley is one of the hottest places on earth, and it's also one of the best places to see a sidewinder snake (Crotalus cerastes). Visitors to low-lying deserts are often struck by the sets of parallel marks extending across the pristine sandy surface. It's difficult to understand how a snake could make them, but the mystery clears up when you see a sidewinder making them. The strange method of locomotion is just one of the adaptations that the Mojave sidewinder (Crotalus cerastes cerastes), the Sonoran desert sidewinder (C. c. cercobombus) and the Colorado desert sidewinder (C. c. laterorepens) have developed to survive in the hot, sandy desert.
