Snakes will not drown in water under normal circumstances, because most snakes can swim. If they are placed in water, they will swim to the water for air. But snakes breathe with their lungs. If they are kept in water all the time, they may drown.

In addition, if snakes are placed in deep waters, some snakes that often move on land may drown. Because they live on land all the year round, their swimming ability is not very strong, and their waters are deep, they are prone to drowning when they float up for air.

Common water snakes and sea snakes are not afraid of water, because they live in water all the year round, especially sea snakes, which live in seawater all the year round and swim to the water only when they take a breath. Although both sea snakes and water snakes appear on the water to breathe, they live in the water for a long time, so they are not afraid of water. Most snakes breathe with their lungs. Although water snakes have good water quality, they may suffocate if they don't breathe for a long time. In addition, water snakes can live in water or move on land for a short time.
