An unwritten rule is that you must always ride the Python at least once during your visit. But I don't wait more than 20 minutes.

Dieser zu den Riesenschlangen zählende Python zeigt bei Belästigung oder Gefahr eine eigentümliche Verhaltensweise: Er rollt sich zu einer kaum auflösbaren Kugel zusammen und verbirgt den empfindlichen Kopf unter den Körperschlingen. Diese Verhaltensweise hat ihm den Namen Ballpython eingetragen. In ähnlicher Weise legt sich das Weibchen um seine Eier und bewacht das Gelege. Nur zum Wassertrinken verlässt es für kurze Zeit seine Brut. Diese Form der Brutpflege ist typisch für viele Pythonarten. Die jungen Schlangen dagegen sind bei allen Arten vom Ausschlüpfen an auf sich alleine angewiesen.
Verwandtschaft: Riesenschlangen, Pythons
Lebensraum: Wälder, Busch- und Grasgebiete
Lebensweise: nachtaktiver Bodenbewohner, klettert auch oft auf Bäume
Futter: Kleinsäuger, Vögel und Reptilien, besonders Geckos
Geschlechtsreife: etwa 3 Jahre
Lebenserwartung: rund 20 Jahre
Gelegegrösse: 9 bis 11 Eier
Brütendes Tier: Weibchen
Gesamtlänge: selten länger als 1.2 bis 1.5 m, Junge: ca. 25 cm
Fortpflanzung: Das Weibchen bewacht sein Gelege. Nach 50 bis 80 Tagen, bei einer Temperatur von ca. 30°C, schlüpfen die Jungtiere.
Riesenschlangen
Bei den Riesenschlangen unterscheidet man zwei Gruppen (Unterfamilien), die Pythons und die Boas. Im Gegensatz zu den eierlegenden Pythonarten bringen die Boas direkt lebende Junge zur Welt. Riesenschlangen besitzen kein Gift, um ihre Beutetiere zu lähmen oder zu töten. Die Beute wird zuerst durch Zubeissen an der Flucht gehindert. Blitzschnell windet sich danach der Körper der Schlange um das Opfer. Der Tod erfolgt aber weder durch Ersticken noch durch Zerquetschen der Knochen oder der inneren Organe, sondern durch Unterbinden des Blutkreislaufs mit nachfolgendem Hirnschlag.
Python Reticulatus
Non venimeux (aglyphe) mais potentiellement mortel pour l'homme par constriction
Répartition : sud-est de l'Asie
Taille adulte : plus de 8m, c'est le plus long serpent du monde
Biotope : il habite les forêts tropicales près de l'eau
Particularités et mode de vie : ce python extrêmement puissant est un grand prédateur. Il peut ingurgiter d'énormes proies mais peut aussi rester plus d'un an sans manger. Braconnés pour leur peau magnifique, les grands spécimens deviennent très rares dans la nature.
Régime alimentaire : gros mammifères, oiseaux
Reproduction : espèce ovipare, 30 à 100 oeufs couvés par la mère
This Sunny. She's just shed here, and is watching what I'm doing. She's a bold snake and very good-natured.

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

“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.

Saw this nice size python while checking the usual haunts of the quails. He was laying there like this soaking up the sun and no doubt waiting for any wandering quail to cross his path.
On the left stands a young Shipibo Indian shaman form Peru, who I met at the market in Magisterio, a suburb of Cuzco. On the right my friend from the USA, a self acclaimed shaman, in whose house I stayed during a month. The momentum provided the picture, the python being the cherry on the pie.
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.
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. Take a picture with a python around your neck or stroke the snakes if you are scared of being strangled. Several shrines were built for offerings to the 'snake-god' Dagbe, but the biggest offerings come from the tourists who pay $1.50 to enter the Temple of the Sacred Python. Voodoo shrines and other relics can be viewed for this entry fee, but taking photos with the snakes can be costly.
