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.

Species of python found in Southeast Asia; it is widely regarded as the world's longest snake and longest reptile; specimens as long as 6 meters and weighing 59 kg have been reported. This individual was about 3 meters long.
The "reticulated" net-like patterning of it's scales gives the reticulated python its name.
Python molurus bivittatus
This snake was really quite large. Also from the Lizards Alive! show at the Natural History Museum.

C'è un solo particolare è molto aggressivo! :-(
This python was settling down for the night on a precarious branch in the mangroves. About 12 feet below was the Brisbane River. We were just above it on a boardwalk behind the mangroves which are flowering and I think the snake was nicely positioned to grab any bird that came to feed on the nectar. It was a mid-sized snake.
Indian python, also known as black-tailed python and Indian rock python is a large nonvenomous python. The species is limited to Southern Asia. It is generally lighter colored than the Burmese python and reaches usually over 9 feet in length.
Lethargic and slow moving even in its native habitat, they exhibit timidity and rarely try to attack even when attacked. They are very good swimmers and are quite at home in water.
These snakes are carnivore animals and they feed on mammals, birds and reptiles indiscriminately, but seem to prefer mammals. After a heavy meal, an individual may fast for weeks, the longest recorded duration being 2 years!
Hope you enjoyed!

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.
