Python reticulatus, also known as the (Asiatic) reticulated python or regal python, is a species of python found in Southeast Asia. Adults grow to over 28 feet (8.7 m) in length and are the world's longest snakes and longest reptile, but are not the most heavily built. Like all pythons, they are non-venomous constrictors and normally not considered dangerous to humans, even though large specimens are powerful enough to kill an adult and attacks are occasionally reported.
An excellent swimmer, it has even been reported far out at sea and has consequently colonized many small islands within its range. The specific name is Latin meaning net-like, or reticulated, and is a reference to the complex color pattern.

The Reticulated python (Python reticulatus) is potentially the longest snake in the world, having been known to reach lengths in excess of 30 feet. The name "reticulated" comes from the "net-like" pattern on their bodies. They are natives of Southeast Asia. Although they are nonvenomous and technically "not harmful", Reticulated pythons are not good snakes to have in captivity as their behavior is considered to be "unpredictable". The snake in this photo was housed briefly, a few years ago, at the Boise Zoo before moving on to Seattle. Photo by Frank. Taken with a Leicaflex SL.
This is a screen shot from Call of Duty Black Ops where I'm standing behind another player with a magnum (aka Python) revolver.
Reticulated python - The name comes from its pattern which is "reticulated" or "net-like."Story was that this snake had been housed at the Lawrence Livermore Labs in California (1992). Somehow it found its way to the Boise Zoo and after a year or so the zoo was unable to keep it so I found a home for it in Seattle. It's sad what happens to big snakes in captivity - people get them when they are small, but the snakes grow up and are difficult and expensive to care for. Reticulated pythons are native to Southeast Asia and the Philippines and are the longest snakes in the world, having been documented as long as 32 feet. Their disposition is characterized as "unpredictable" and really should only be kept in facilities qualified to maintain them. This snake was about 9 feet long when the pictures were taken.

A closer look at the African Python coiled up on a tree. The African Rock Python is widely feared due to it's large size, even though it very rarely kills humans. The snake is in fact poached by humans for it's meat and it's skin. However there has been the rare occasion of an African Rock Python swallowing a human, like a school boy in South Africa who was swallowed by a python in 2002 while his friends watched terrified from the tree which they climbed to take shelter and an infant in Kenya circa 2012 when his mother left him on the doorstep and went into the house for a short while.

Species of python found in Southeast Asia; it is widely regarded as the world's longest snake and longest reptile; specimens as long as 6 meters and weighing 59 kg have been reported. This individual was about 3 meters long.
The "reticulated" net-like patterning of it's scales gives the reticulated python its name.
Python molurus bivittatus
This snake was really quite large. Also from the Lizards Alive! show at the Natural History Museum.
This python was settling down for the night on a precarious branch in the mangroves. About 12 feet below was the Brisbane River. We were just above it on a boardwalk behind the mangroves which are flowering and I think the snake was nicely positioned to grab any bird that came to feed on the nectar. It was a mid-sized snake.
