when snakes feed they sort of dislocate there jaws, after they yawn open, strech there mouths to realign the muscles to put there mouth right.

Theres a saying, use it or lose it... Maybe it goes the same with snakes, if they don't stretch out their mouths they lose them...

We yawn to draw oxygen in. It must be something to do with our breathing when we are tired or stressed.

If this is true, then perhaps snakes are the same?

Also, if this is true... How come when someone mentions yawning it makes you yawn?
