Olive Python (Liasis olivaceus)
One day this snake may grow to be over four-metres long and be Australia's heaviest snake, but for now it is a terror to only frogs and geckos!
Measuring under a foot long, this baby python was found crossing the road just outside of Berry Springs in the Northern Territory. Like most growing pythons it showed a lot of attitude whilst being ushered off, a very understandable survival tactic.
Unfortunately a lot of wildlife fall victim to cars on rural roads and I highly encourage people to slow down and keep an eye out for any unusual shapes on the road, especially at night!
