Many types of animals live in our world. Reptiles are one of these kinds. They are like fish because they lay eggs. Most of them have scales, but others have feet and tails. Some have hard shells.

All reptiles move. They can walk or crawl. A snake is the one kind of reptile that does not have legs. It can only crawl across the ground on its belly.
