Spotted this baby python in a tree during the Daintree river cruise just north of Cairns, Australia.
A green tree python in the Vivarium in Darmstadt. There is unfortunately some reflection from the pane of glass, and it was a long exposure time (2.5 seconds), so perhaps you will excuse any blurs.

A snake that is native to southeast Asia in tropical areas. Their normal home environment are hot, tropical rain-forests near the equator. The python snake is solely a meat eater. However, unlike some carnivorous snakes, it has no venom. Rather, as a member of the boa family, it is a constrictor, waiting to ambush its prey and then squeezing the life out of it.
TAXONOMY
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Reptilia
Order: Squamata
Suborder: Serpentes
Family: Pythonidae (Pythons)
Genus/species: Aspidites melanocephalus
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS: The head is covered with shiny black scales; body a striped or brindled pattern in shades of black and gray brown, gold and cream. Juveniles are more vividly marked. Females are larger than males.
A large snake with maximum length of 2.5 m, though 1.5 to 2 m more common.
DISTRIBUTION/HABITAT: Northern Territory, Queensland, Western Australia. The Black Headed Python is found in open woodlands, shrub lands, outcrops, humid coastal forests, and seasonally-dry tropical woodlands. It is not found in very arid regions. Found among rocks and loose debris. During cooler temperatures, evidence suggests that when termite nests are present, they tend to burrow into these habitats as a way of maintaining a stable body temperature.
DIET IN THE WILD: A. melanocephalus feeds on birds, other reptiles; small mammals, especially rodents. They are active at night. In the absence of infralabial sensory pits it is probable that tactile, olfactory, and visual cues play an important role in communication and perception in black-headed pythons.
ACADEMY DIET: Two rats every 2 weeks. (M Avila Academy biologist)
Lifespan: from 20 to 30 years
REPRODUCTION: Oviparous. Females guard the five to 10 eggs per clutch.
CONSERVATION: IUCN Not evaluated
REMARKS: Like all pythons, a non-venomous species that kills by constriction. To save energy during the dry season when food and water are scarce, pythons reduce their body temperature. Can dig and live in burrows to escape daytime heat. Small, streamlined head and nonprotrusive eyes may be adaptations to entering burrows and hollows.
The glossy, black head that is characteristic of this species helps regulate body temperature as well, allowing the majority of the snake’s body to remain hidden while it extends only its head from its burrow. In order to cool themselves, they may bury their dark head in the sand. When disturbed, black-headed pythons occasionally hiss, but rarely bite. They may also strike with their mouths closed when threatened

A blood python living in its natural habitat will spend most of its time underwater. While submerged in a river or stream, the blood python waits for its meal to cross its path. Python curtus would then stalk the targeted prey and ambush it. This aggressive characteristic is evident in other behaviors of the blood python. For example, people who catch blood pythons in the wild have reported many violent, ill-tempered actions. Wild pythons living near human settlements are more likely to be regarded as dangerous pests than as exotic pets. On the other hand, blood pythons that are raised and bred tend to be more docile. The people who catch the species Python curtus are mainly breeders and collectors of exotic animals. Blood pythons have become endangered due to the fact that their beautiful skin is now in high demand on the exotic leather market.
