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

More Clem and Cocoa. I really liked the effects I got with the flash and the fast-moving snakes. You think "herding cats" is difficult? Two energized, inquisitive ball pythons are hilariously infuriating. <3
I popped into town today (Saturday) and while on The Moor, I noticed a couple collecting money for the Thornberry Animal Sanctuary www.thornberry-animal-sanctuary.org/index.php and the man had a snake! So I just had to go and investigate. Apparently she's his own pet snake, and it a type of python which is friendly and won't harm you. She has beautiful markings and her skin was incredibly smooth, like a highly polished wooden floor! She's about 5ft long. She seemed very happy to investigate by flicking her forked tongue. I've always wanted to touch a snake, and now I have! Lovely.

Python reticulatus, also known as the (Asiatic) reticulated python is a species of python found in Southeast Asia. Adults can grow to over 8.7 m (28 feet) in length but normally grow to an average of 3-6 meters (10–20 feet). They are the world's longest snakes and longest reptile, but are not the most heavily built. Like all pythons, they are nonvenomous constrictors and normally not considered dangerous to humans. Although large specimens are powerful enough to kill an adult human, attacks are only occasionally reported.
An excellent swimmer, Python reticulatus has been reported far out at sea and has 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.

waited for the tongue to come out for almost a minute .... no show
guess it was not impressed with my 'modest' (in other words: el-cheapo) gear hahaha
If you flip a 1800's silver dollar over the wall, an Anasazi sprit possesses your child long enough to pose, if you're quick on the trigger.

Morelia viridis
The green tree python, is a species of python found in New Guinea, islands in Indonesia, and Cape York Peninsula in Australia.
Adults average 120–200 cm (3.9–6.6 ft) in length, with a maximum growth (although rare) of about 7 feet. The supralabial scales have thermoreceptive pits.
A mostly arboreal species with a striking green or yellow color in adults. The color pattern on this species can vary dramatically from locality to locality. For example, the Aru local is a vivid green with a broken vertebral stripe of white or dull yellow scales, the Sorong local is a bright green with blue highlights and a solid vertical stripe, and the Kofiau local is mostly yellow with varying highlights in white or blue. Cyanomorphs (blue morphs) are also known to occur but are not considered common at this time. Juveniles are polymorphic, occurring in reddish, bright yellow and orange morphs.
Primarily arboreal, these snakes have a particular way of resting in the branches of trees; they loop a coil or two over the branches in a saddle position and place their head in the middle. This trait is shared with the emerald tree boa, Corallus caninus, of South America. This habit, along with their appearance, has caused people to confuse the two species when seen outside their natural habitat.
The diet consists mostly of small mammals, such as rodents, and sometimes reptiles. It was thought that this snake, like the Emerald Tree Boa, ate birds however, Switak conducted field work on this issue and in examining stomach contents of more than 1,000 animals he did not find any evidence of avian prey items. Prey is captured by holding onto a branch using the prehensile tail and striking out from an s-shape position and constricting the prey.
Oviparous, with 1-25 viable eggs per clutch. In the wild eggs are incubated and protected by the female, often in the hollow of a tree. Hatchlings are lemon yellow with broken stripes and spots of purple and brown, or golden or orange/red. Over time the color changes as the animal matures, color of the adult depends on the locality of the animal (some taking many years to finish color change).

Introduction to Python: Absolute Beginner
While new to Python, I am no beginner in programming. The course worked fine for me anyway: I dropped the videos and skipped right to the exercises, sometimes even skipping right to the evaluations.

BURMESE PYTHON
Asian dream, American nightmare.
One of the largest snakes in the world and the only protected snake species in Hong Kong.
Margaret and Peter were cruising in the Indian Ocean in 2005. We had gone to see tortoises in an enclosure near a small village when this small (c. 6 feet) python slid down out of the forest and crossed the path... It didn't waste much time so I was fortunate to be able to get this more or less close up shot. - Peter
