Everything in universe testifies on the oneness of Allah the only creator. The green snake is a wonderful creature, let us see and glorify Allah ….
The green snake is not likely to be confused with any other snake. It is 12-22 inches in length and non venomous. It has no outstanding markings, but it is a bright, brilliant green. The belly is usually bright yellow, but sometimes may be cream instead. The labials are the color of the belly. Some specimens may be buff or tan above instead of green.
Habitat of the green snake
The smooth green snake is found in a variety of habitats such as grassy, moist meadows, native prairies, and clearings in coniferous pine forests. This snake is seen crossing bike or hiking trails, or brought home by cats or dogs that hunt in large open fields, particularly near railroad tracks.

This snake is largely diurnal and less secretive than our other small snakes. It spends most of its day forging through tall grass or small shrubs, and though it is an accomplished climber, it is mostly terrestrial. It does not spend as much time under cover as other snakes, but do not underestimate the effectiveness of searching under boards, flat rocks, or other objects for these snakes.
When approached in the field, these snakes take off for a short distance then freeze or gently sway with the grass, perfectly camouflaged. Most are discovered only when they venture onto the road. When they are picked up, they may thrash for a bit, but they rarely bite.
Who taught those creatures to do such things? Indeed Allah almighty is the doer who is the creator of all creatures and everything.
A new discovered type of green snakes which is 130 Cm of length and it depends on heat as a working mechanism. Allah almighty had supported this species by heat detection system to receive heat waves in day or night to enable it to eat the prey.
Food of the green snake
Green snakes are one of the few species of snakes that is entirely insectivorous. They like crickets, grasshoppers, and smooth caterpillars. This is probably one of the reasons this snake has declined in abundance.
Hence, after all of the above we have to think rationally without any outer pressures and ask a question, who told these creatures how to feed itself by the suitable technique to its abilities and not to die by hunger?
Indeed He is Allah almighty who imposed on Himself to give the needed provision for all creatures, He says: (And no moving (living) creature is there on earth but its provision is due from Allah. And He knows its dwelling place and its deposit (in the uterus, grave). All is in a Clear Book (Al-Lauh Al-Mahfûz – the Book of Decrees with Allah).) (Sûrat Hûd-verse6).
