This is "Julius Squeezer" - Burmese Python
Julius is quite large, about 12 feet long and 65 pounds, according to his handlers. It takes three people to carry him safely. He is an animal ambassador at the SDZ Safari Park.
The Burmese python is one of the five largest snakes in the world, native to a large variation of tropic and sub-tropic areas of Southern- and Southeast Asia.
They are often found near water and are sometimes semi-aquatic, but can also be found in trees. They are also excellent swimmers, being able to stay submerged for up to half an hour.
Burmese pythons are carnivorous. Their diet consists primarily of appropriately sized birds, mammals
and vermin. IUCN has recently listed the Burmese python as "Vulnerable". Wikipedia

Diamond Python (Morelia spilota spilota). This beautiful beastie was resting on the road. Joe had to get out and use a tree branch to usher it off the road, which gave me a chance to take some photos and video. [Colo, NSW]
We met this fellow in a tree, while we were resting during a klong-trip in Bangkok. This species has the potential of growing up to 10 ms of length, being the worlds longest snake. Sadly it's hard to tell the length of this snake because of it's rolled-up condition, but my humble guess would be 2-3 ms.
During my visit to Eagle Heights last week, I was asked if I would like to hold a couple of the snakes and although I have always had a minor phobia about snakes, I jumped at the opportunity. This was one of them and I was completely shocked that they do not feel as I had imagined. In fact they are soft, smooth and dry but immensely strong. I no longer fear or have a phobia about snakes.
