Snakes are wonderful creatures with different colours they live in all places except Antarctica,greenland,New Zealand & ireland,they are capable of living in harsh environmental conditions like deserts & even very cold places like the arctic circle.
They have adapted their bodies to the given climate & environmental conditions they are very adaptive creatures,snakes that live in desert have tick,keeled scales to minimise the water loss where as the snakes of tropical region have smooth scales.Their body structure is maintained based up on their surroundings & their toxicity of venom is based upon the prey.
We have the most venomous snake on earth called the inland tipan,the 1st primary question is that why did the snake had such toxic venom nearly 50 times potent than rattle snake,this is because it's prey is plague rat one of the deadliest rats if the powerful is to be hunted one much be very powerful & so does the vine snakes venom which is very less potent as it feeds on small lizards,that cann't cause harm to snake.
While there are other snakes which keep on growing their muscel in case of anacondas & pythons their body is not slender you will get a complete 'O' shaped tube when it is cut with large radious.If anacondas keep on hunting caiman which they do very rarly herpetologist believe that in near future it may grow bigger & getting some muscles added up if it takes place they will exceed the size of pythons too.
A cave python feeds on bats,small insects but not an another snakes or mice,but a forest python can feed on mice & other small reptiles & mammals but not bats it is a dietry evolution,which took place some millions of years,the cave pythons are darker in colour but the tropical pythons are less darker.
The environment & surrounding also force in the change in the colour & patter of the skin if a snake is stout,like the gabbon viper which is stout & large which can't hunt down it's prey,dude to many year of evolution the snake has finally got the floor which it was waiting for,these vpers have dead leaf skin patter & they lie on the dead leaves very much camoflaged we can't find it,even it's fangs are relatively bigger than any other venomous snake,because of it's stout prey,so that the fangs enter deep into the body & inject venom.

One behavioral adaptation would be that it can open its mouth very wide to eat animals such as rats.
