The Book of Genesis describes the Garden of Eden as a paradise
That was before the serpent tempted Eve to eat of the forbidden fruit
Man had always had a special relationship with snakes
Part fascination part fear
Some say the cursing of the serpent symbolizes the ultimate victory of God over Satan
Others that it represents sexual passion as a sin
Snakes are also linked with desire and fear in Greek mythology
Medusa was said to be stunningly beautiful
Yet her hair was a mass of writhing snakes
Anyone tempted to gaze upon her immediately turned to stone
The snake has had a mixed reputation
The Greek god of healing shows the snake as an emblem of medicine
It features on the badge of the Royal Army Medical Corps
Anthony called Cleopatra The Serpent of Old Nile
She died holding an asp to her bosom
The idea of giant snakes fascinated early explorers
They returned with tales of pythons a hundred feet tall
Requiring a small army to subdue them
There are many advantages to having a long muscular limbless body
But there are problems
Eating is one of them
Snakes habitually swallow prey far bigger than their own heads
