Snakes are cold-blooded creatures, just like amphibians. When a certain animal is cold-blooded, it basically means that they are able to adapt their own internal temperature to that of their environment. When a snake is in a cool environment, their body temperature tends to drop rather quickly.

They keep their body temperature in a normal range mainly by avoiding exposure to environmental temperature extremes. For instance, reptiles usually remain in shaded areas on hot days to prevent fatal overheating.
