According to the website Scientific American, snakes typically climb trees by tensing their belly muscles to grip small bark projections and then sliding upwards or through a motion of gripping and releasing called “accordion movement.”

Experts say this technique resembles how a human climbs a rope: the snake grasps two points on a tree with S-shaped bends in its body.
