Hi, Ali:

From the Wikipedia entry for slow worms:

---------------------------
Although these lizards are often mistaken for snakes, there are a number
of features that differentiate them from snakes. The most important is
they have small eyes with eyelids that blink like lizards. This is a
feature that is not found in snakes. They may also have visible ears
like lizards do, which snakes do not have. They shed their skin in
patches like other lizards, rather than the whole skin as most snakes do.

------------------------------

Much more he
