Coiled reticulated python

Individuals of this species have proved to be indisputably the longest snake in the world. Unlike it's rival for the record, the South American anaconda, this tropical Asian monster is active amongst trees.

The python is still persecuted by man for it's skin and few live long enough to reach their maximum potential size.

Reticulated pythons are able to take prey as large as deer or pigs and, very rarely people.
