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.

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.

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.

Python molurus bivittatus
This snake was really quite large. Also from the Lizards Alive! show at the Natural History Museum.
I love snakes, but this is the first time I've shot for skin texture. This particular snake was just massive. Wish I could remember which of the larger python species it is.
Today (3 June 2011) we had another sighting of our friend the Coastal carpet python (Morelia spilota sub sp. mcdowelli) in the pandanus palm at the back of the laundry.
My hairier half, Warwick, was downstairs and he heard the frantic noise the birds make when the pythons are in the poinciana tree, and came across this chap coming down from there via the ‘dick tree’ (our nickname for pandanus palms – it’s a long story!).
I decided on a montage as I thought it was the best way to show him – and also helped to hide the blown highlights in the full stretch photo – it’s hard to get a python from head to tail when he is along a branch! You can just see a bit of tail curl on the lower right of that shot. And I loved the detail one of his underside, something we don’t often see.
So after annoying him for a few minutes we left him in peace to go and have a bask in the sun.
