Python Regius
Non venimeux (aglyphe)
Répartition : Afrique de l'ouest, notamment au Ghana, au Togo et au Bénin
Taille adulte : 1.50 m
Biotope : savanes, forêts
Particularités et mode de vie : ce petit python était vénéré par certains peuples africains. C'est le python des rois. Timide, il se met en boule pour protéger sa tête. Massivement importé d'Afrique pour les amateurs débutants, il s'adapte pourtant très difficilement.
Régime alimentaire : rongeurs
Reproduction : espèce ovipare, 3 à 7 gros oeufs
Genus/species: Python reticulatus (Pythonidae)
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS: Normally colored reticulated pythons have several pigments: melanin (blacks), and xanthins (yellows) amongst other more subtle colors. Lemondrop is a “lavender albino” which is the same thing as a “tyrosinase positive albino” (t-positive) which have the inability to complete the synthesis of melanin but can produce other melanin related pigments such as various shades of brown grey and red resulting the “lavender” color. A “normal albino” (t-negative) reticulated python is yellow and white with pink/red eyes. Melanin and other melanin pigments areas are pure white but non-melanin pigments are present giving alternate colors (xanthines produce yellows). To make matters more complicated different albino snakes may have mutations giving them additional color morphs.
Our albino American Alligator, (Claude) Alligator mississippiensis is a “normal albino” (t-negative) with no melanin or non-melanin pigments making him pure white. If you google “t-positive albino” or “tyrosinase positive albino” you can find a lot more information on this condition.

DISTRIBUTION/HABITAT: Myanmar and India, across Southeast Asia and on many of the islands of the Philippines and Indonesia.
Found on the ground, in caves or in trees and they have adapted to
living in towns and cities.

1 septembre 2017 : Ajout de 6 photos de python vert sur mon site : desphotospleinlesyeux.melaniebeuf.com/2017/09/01/ajout-de...
This Python was sunning itself on the dirt road before rapidly doing a 180° turn and disappearing into the scrub. I was able to take a reasonably accurate measurement and it was 3.5 - 4.0m long or about 11.5 - 13.0 ft.. At its widest part its diameter was about 15 cm (6 in.), possibly slightly larger. At this size it would be a female.
This is a very large specimen we only partially glimpsed on the forest floor just off the track to Crystal Falls, that is a fly on its back. The snake was moving uphill surprisingly quickly so I followed it through the fern understory while dodging low-growing stinging trees. Shutter and ISO are a little high due to the low light levels and hand held shooting at 400 mm. This body section is probably around 15 cm in diameter, overall length at least 3 metres.
This would be Morelia spilota mcdowelli, a subspecies of Morelia spilota, commonly known as the carpet python, and is informally named the Eastern, Coastal or McDowell's Carpet python. Although Wells & Wellington (1984) is somewhat 'controversial' (taxonomic vandalism apparently). blogs.scientificamerican.com/tetrapod-zoology/taxonomic-v...
They are active by day or night (nocturnal and diurnal) feeding mainly on possums, rats, flying foxes and birds, and occasionally poultry, domestic cats and small dogs. Attempts at eating cane toads are fatal. They lay up to ~35 eggs and sometimes exhibit unpredictable and aggressive behavior. Bites are not venomous, but can cause lacerations. Tetanus protection is recommended.
Benin. West Africa.
Ouidah
In most parts of the world snakes are feared, but in Benin they are revered. Royal pythons are worshiped in Benin, especially in Ouidah. The good news is that royal pythons are not dangerous, but the bad news is that these sacred reptiles are welcome Beninese households where they are fed when the doors of the temple are opened at night. There is no fear when the locals welcome these slithering pythons into their living rooms like an honoured guest.
The Temple of Pythons is a small room of twelve square meters that houses 50 adult royal pythons.
This was taken in Langkawi, Malaysia, it is totally in the wild. It may not be a python, if you know, please let me know.
The olive python (Liasis olivaceus) is a large python that can reach sizes in excess of 4 metres and is Australia's second-largest snake species. They have a uniform body colour of either olive, greenish brown or reddish brown while the belly is usually cream coloured.
Taken from behind glass at a sanctuary... but I'd rather take a shot of a snake in the wild than of a large insect any day!
Quand on se retrouve à 5 mètres d'une bestiole de plus de 5 mètres , avec un teleobjectif équivalent 420 mm , ben ... on vise seulement la tête , juste avant qu'elle ne se retourne sur elle même et s'enfuie sous les buissons .

“The 2 icons of 20th century’s Danish furniture design: the “Valet” chair of Hans Wegner and the “Ant” chair of Arne Jacobsen are staying on the retina….What will happen if we crossbreed them? How will their child look like?” This question KOMPLOT Design /Boris Berlin and Poul Christiansen, Denmark/ asked themselves and related it to often faced situation when visiting a restaurant, we miss a good chair-back on which to hang our jacket without it falling on the floor or being crumpled.
PYTHON is a 21st century chair for cafes and restaurants, Internet cafes as well as for reception-rooms with a chair back that holds your jacket like a coat-hanger without it falling on the floor or beeing crumped
PYTHON’s special construction with enlarged thickness in the curve gives very high strenght to the chair making it suitable for regular usage in public spaces
PYTHON collection includes three chairs - PYTHON, PYT and stackable PYT bar chair. PYT has the same shape and construction but without the high back. It suits very well together with PYTHON and allows you to play with forms and colours in the interior. Both - PYTHON and PYT - are offered also with upholstered seat pad
PYTHON collection is available in different natural wood veneers - birch, beech, maple, cherry, walnut, oak, zebrano, wenge. It comes clear lacquered or in wide range of stained finish as well as covered with matted white or black melamine
PYTHON, PYT and PYT bar is stackable up to 8 pieces
Tested according to DIN EN 1728, DIN EN 13761, DIN 68 878 for contractual use in LGA Qualitest GmbH Furniture Test Institute.
A captive Children's python (Antaresia childreni) eating a dead rat. She dragged it into her little hidey-hole, and I thought she had eaten it. But a few minutes later the rat appeared outside. She must have had difficulty trying to swallow it in the confines of her box, so she moved outside where she could finally eat it.
