The book of Genesis talks about a serpent, not a snake, Jim. A good key word Bible and a cursory study of the ancient Hebrew language would help you a great deal.
The Australopithecus doesn't look anything like a serpent, come on.
Interestingly enough, the book of Genesis is where CS Lewis got his idea that before the fall animals and human beings could talk to one another. Hence the mythology he incorporated into his Chronicles of Narnia series.
You notice that when the serpent begins talking to Eve, she isn't surprise or shocked in the least, she just talks right back to him.
Interesting, huh?

Moses couldn't spell "Australopithecus", so he used the next reasonable approximation so that the Hebrews would still have some idea of what he meant.

I think it was the same snake that Aesclepius learned about the healing herb from.
