Indian python, also known as black-tailed python and Indian rock python is a large nonvenomous python. The species is limited to Southern Asia. It is generally lighter colored than the Burmese python and reaches usually over 9 feet in length.
Lethargic and slow moving even in its native habitat, they exhibit timidity and rarely try to attack even when attacked. They are very good swimmers and are quite at home in water.
These snakes are carnivore animals and they feed on mammals, birds and reptiles indiscriminately, but seem to prefer mammals. After a heavy meal, an individual may fast for weeks, the longest recorded duration being 2 years!
Hope you enjoyed!

Autocar Heil Freedom Superlight Curotto can
Back in November, WMmaster626 and I went to Moreno Valley and found a truly one of a kind refuse truck, especially in SoCal! A Autocar Heil Freedom Superlight Curotto can, unfortunately we were not able to film it in November and often WMmaster626 and I would talk about the superlight and wanting to film it. So on 1/22/16 we went to Waste Managements Moreno Valley MRF, waited for the Superlight to arrive and followed it to Unincorporated Perris/Riverside. During our November visit we spoke to a real nice driver named Dave who has been with WM for 27 years. We talked to him for a while and eventually NEWCO Waste Systems got brought up and he talked about WM Moreno Valley getting some of their routes in 1999. Unincorporated Perris/Riverside is the area Dave must have been talking about. Many of the NEWCO carts WMmaster626 has filmed in Arcadia were in this area. There were NEWCO zarns, 96 gallon blue and black toters even black and blue Rehrigs and of course 96 gallon black Turn-Keys along with NEWCO dumpsters that were still blue with NEWCO logos on them. We also found a Heil Python on route that was fun to watch.
So between the Superlight, the Python and perhaps the biggest shock, a ex NEWCO route it was a great day full of surprises. Thank you WMmaster626 for coming and arranging today, Thank you John (Superlight) and Raul (Python), you are both very professional and efficient drivers. I would also like to Thank John Curotto and the Curotto staff who made this awesome carry can. AFL’s have always been my favorite refuse truck. I grew up with S.T.S. Autobuckets, Heil Autocans and of course Curotto cans, so thanks for making this amazing carry can!
Invented in 2009, the Superlight is a Curotto can that is lighter than the Slammin Eagle. The dumpter is primarily made of special high strength Kevlar fabric and weighs only 1,200 pounds (compared to a Slammin Eagle which is closer to 2,000 pounds).

This seemed like a nice idea to build. Also has some playability rather than just driving it along.
Here is an article about the real thing
The Burmese python (Python bivittatus) is one of the five largest species of snakes in the world (about the third-largest as measured either by length
or weight). It is native to a large variation of tropic and subtropic areas
of South and Southeast Asia.
They are often found near water and are sometimes semi-aquatic,
but can also be found in trees. Wild individuals average 3.7 m long,
but have been known to reach 5.74 m .
Burmese pythons are mainly nocturnal rainforest dwellers. When young, they are equally at home on the ground and in trees, but as they gain girth, they tend to restrict most of their movements to the ground. They are also excellent swimmers, being able to stay submerged for up to half an hour. Burmese pythons spend the majority of their time hidden in the underbrush.
Like all snakes, the Burmese python is carnivorous. Its diet consists
primarily of appropriately sized birds and mammals. The snake uses its
sharp rearward-pointing teeth to seize its prey, then wraps its body
around the prey, at the same time contracting its muscles, killing
the prey by constriction. It is often found near human habitation due
to the presence of rats, mice, and other vermin as a food source.
Burmese pythons are often sold as pets Although this species has a reputation for docility, they are very powerful animals, capable of inflicting severe bites or even killing a keeper by constriction.

Part of the exhibition at the Out of Africa theme park was this "get up close" experience with a python. Generally I am not a snake fan and this python was about 25 feet in length with its head being about the size of a couple of baseballs.
Strangely, I felt comfortable in its presence. I petted it and it came to me attempting to crawl up my pants leg. I didn't let that continue; overall it was a pleasant and friendly experience. I am sure that experiencing this same snake out in the jungle would have me running as far away and as fast as I could to escape from its presence.

In 1981 Colt introduced the Python Hunter, made about 2000 of them. In 1983 introduced the Python Silhoutte, only info I could find was that they made about 200, maybe 500 of them, I am going to send to Colt for the letter and find out how many were made. The Hunter and the Silhouette were both custom shop guns, came with the Leoplod scopes with the Leopold / Colt emblem on the scope. The serial number on mine indicates that it was made in 1981, but they weren't out even introduced till 1983. I believe from some research that Colt would take blocks of serial numbered guns from a year into the Custom Shop, and sometimes they were not even built till years later. The only difference between them was the scroll marks on the barrels and the case they came in.
Found that they are selling for about $4000, sometimes in less condition as mine with case and so forth.
Trying to find one for sale? Good luck. You MIGHT see a Hunter for sale online OCCASIONALLY.
A Diamond Python or Carpet Snake. These snakes are becoming rare due to predation by Foxes and habitat loss.
Taking some photos, I noticed some injuries caused by an unknown animal and realised that he needed some medical attention.
After some excellent co-operation between DELWP and Parks Victoria with assistance from James, Kerry, John, Tom, Wes and Mark, the snake is now on his way to the Vet for some TLC and will then be cared for by a local wildlife carer before being released back where he was found.
