Who invented safety goggles?
Snakes have no eyelids, so they can’t blink or close their eyes to protect them. Instead, some snakes, such as the garter snake, which we sometimes see on IslandWood site, have specially adapted scales that completely cover and protect their eyes! Keep your eyes open for shed snake skins when you’re outside. If you look closely, you’ll see that snakes shed their goggles along with the rest of their skin as they grow. And of course, they grow a completely new pair of goggles along with their new skin.
