A Reticulated Python rests in his enclosure. The Python reticulatus, also known as the (Asiatic) reticulated python, is a species of python found in Southeast Asia. Adults can grow to 22.8 ft in length but more commonly grow to an average of 9.8–19.7 ft. They are the world's longest snakes and longest reptile, but are not the most heavily built, which distinction goes to the anaconda. Like all pythons, Retics are nonvenomous constrictors and are normally not considered dangerous to humans. Although large specimens are powerful enough to kill an adult human, attacks are only occasionally reported. There are a few stray accounts of large Retics actually having consumed humans, but the shoulder portion of the human shoulder is too wide for them to swallow, and accounts of man eating Retics have not been authentically substantiated. Their natural diet includes mammals and occasionally birds. (Emirates Park Zoo, Samha, Abu Dhabi, Jan. 2015)

Python bivittatus
A healthy adult that was found crossing a forest road at 4:15 AM with an air temperature of 64 degrees Fahrenheit after a long night of alligator work. This is the 10th python I've seen this year, and is easily the oddest circumstance in which I've found one.

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.
The Indian Python, also called the Black-tailed Python, and Indian Rock Python is a large non-venomous python species found in many tropic and subtropic areas of Southern and Southeast Asia. The color pattern is whitish or yellowish with the blotched patterns varying from shades of tan to dark brown. This varies with terrain and habitat. Lethargic and slow moving, they are very good swimmers and are quite at home in water. These snakes have often been killed for their fine skin and are endangered. The Indian Python is classified as Lower Risk/Near Threatened on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

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
