Superpower of Burmese pythons. Heat sensitive pit organ evolution in snakes.

Snakes possess heat-sensing organs called pit organs, located between their eyes and nostrils. These thermoreceptive organs detect infrared radiation from warm-blooded prey, allowing snakes to hunt in complete darkness. Pit organs convert heat into electrical signals, creating a thermal image in the snake's brain. Found in species like rattlesnakes, copperheads, and cobras, these organs enable snakes to track prey with precision, making them expert hunters. (24)
