As you are a snake owner, you should know that snakes do not have "buttholes". They have a cloaca, a primitive body part that combines the use of a urinary system, digestive system and reproductive system. This organ exists in reptiles, birds and many fish, and, with some male bird species, there is a small protrusion of erectile tissue inside the cloaca that functions as a primitive phallus. In any other case amongst birds and reptiles, both sexes have cloacas, the only difference being on a cellular level (egg and sperm). Monotremes and marsupials have strange and complex reproductive systems, that are somewhere in between reptillian and conventional placental mammalian genitalia. In fact, female kangaroos have genitals that could best be described as "two and a half vaginas". Sharks are unique amongst fish in that while the females have cloacas, the males have a strange genital organ called a "clasper". This genital looks like a pair of large, fleshy pliers, minus the hinge, of course. This aids in shark mating, which is extremely violent towards the female. I hope this has been educational.
