The simple answer is that snakes shed their skin because they are just like all other animals. All animals shed their skin â even you! In mammals, especially humans, this is an ongoing process that's rarely noticed. Skin shedding in reptiles is different. Instead of an ongoing process, reptiles shed skin periodically.
According to the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation guidelines, CPR involves chest compressions at least 5 cm (2 in) deep and at a rate of at least 100 per minute in an effort to create artificial circulation by manually pumping blood through the heart and thus the body.
If you cannot get air into their lungs, go back to chest compressions. If there is an airway obstruction, compressions may help shift the object. Continue CPR, repeating the cycle of 30 compressions then 2 breaths until professional help arrives. Chest compressions are tiring and fatigue will affect the quality. If any other rescuers are available and willing to assist, rotate the person performing compressions every 2 minutes, even if you donât feel tired yet.
