It further inquires about the natural predators of snakes, enhancing students' understanding of the food chain and ecosystem dynamics.

Additionally, the worksheet seeks to broaden the pupils' knowledge by asking them to discover more about snake behaviours, such as their sleeping habits. It also encourages curiosity about broader ecological concepts, prompting students to consider why animals choose specific habitats and how they are adapted to living in environments such as underground, on the ground, or in trees. This comprehensive fact file activity not only educates children about snakes but also fosters a deeper appreciation for wildlife and the importance of biodiversity.
