Fascinating Facts About Slow Worms
Despite their snake-like appearance, slow worms are actually legless lizards that possess eyelids and can blink. They prefer damp, shaded habitats rich in garden soil, fallen leaves, and dense ground cover. These beneficial reptiles help control garden pests by feeding primarily on slugs, worms, and small insects.
