Which animal is the symbol of Slytherin House?

Serpents and snakes are a symbol of deception. The most famously cunning snake in the Western world is arguably the serpent that tricks Eve to give into temptation in the Bible. It's an instigator that only cares about getting what it wants. If you think that sounds like Slytherin House, you're right, and it's no accident.
