When you think about snakes the first thing to come to mind is that they are legless. Which is true, but to make things confusing there are legless lizards who aren't part of the snake family. There are numerous differences between the two reptile cousins serpents don't have eyelids or external ears, while most lizards do. Many "legless" lizards actually have tiny vestigial limbs, while snakes generally have no external appendages at all. Snakes tend to have relatively longer bodies and shorter tails than their limbless lizard counterpart. There also tend to be big ecological differences between snakes and limbless lizards. Most serpents take relatively big prey items on an infrequent basis, while lizards tend to eat large numbers of small creatures such as insects.
