Questions, questions, questions!
I just seen this picture, and my jaw dropped actualy when it really does look like those jurrasic park velociraptors. I think I am correct about this, but I read somewere that the anal spurs on snakes is evoulution based, and it actualy were legs of lizards? .. Anybody can back me up on that.. Im sure you guys heard this before. Anyway.. some of these snakes look like they have obvious roots to dinosaurs[/list]

It is commonly supposed that anal spurs are remnants of legs from evolution.

Snakes evolved from lizards, not Dinosaurs....both came from the same general ancestors but are not directly correlated to each other.

I saw a lizard a the san antonio zoo that was the complete opposite of boids it was a lizard with no legs. It was clasified as a lizard because it had eyelids which snakes do not have. It ate crickets and looked every bit like a lizard but no legs. Go Darwin
Here is what it looks like. http://www.uga.edu/srel/legless_lizard.htm
Thanks,

There are several families of legless lizards (Glass Lzards, Sheltopusiks, etc.)....they do not have legs but are not snakes. They have eyelids and external ears among other things.
