I guess those legless lizards just got in the way when God cursed the snake. First incidence of collateral damage ;^)

Lizards have eyelids. Snakes Don't. To a biologist legs or no legs don't determine snake or lizard -- eyelids do.
There are even legless lizards -- That DO have eyelids.

My post above.

But when I think about it -- It's a pretty dumb way to determine. Why not just say -- No legs = snake. Legs=Lizard. And for the leg-less lizards {with eye-lids},

Just call them lidded snakes.

But I'm no biologist.
