Interesting . . .

According to one mythical legend, there is a reason for the order of the 12 animals in the 12 year cycle. The story goes that a race was held to cross a great river, and the order of the animals in the cycle was based upon their order in finishing the race. In this story, the snake compensated for not being the best swimmer by hitching a hidden ride on the horses hoof, and when the horse was just about to cross the finish line, jumping out, scaring the horse, and thus edging it out for sixth place.

In Chinese symbology, snakes are regarded as intelligent, but with a tendency to be somewhat unscrupulous.[2]

I had a pet boa constrictor once. They ain't very intelligent.

Of course, to Litsters, "snake" calls to mind something that . . . is not very intelligent, either.
