Venomous and constrictor snakes are both skilled predators, but they use very different methods to capture and kill their prey. Venomous snakes, such as cobras and rattlesnakes, rely on specialized fangs to inject toxic venom that can paralyze or kill their prey quickly. This venom may affect the nervous system, blood, or tissues, depending on the species. In contrast, constrictor snakes like boas and pythons use their powerful muscles to wrap around their prey and squeeze until rapid restriction of blood flow to vital organs causes death.
