Python Report
Pythons are Carnivores which means it only eats meat Python’s eats
monkeys, pigs, small ape’s birds and other animals. After it eats a
large prey. Then the python will not be able to eat for a long time.
Then they will rest for weeks. The python is the largest snake and
constriction. That lives in the sub-Saharan in Africa. The python also
lives in Asia and Africa that is near the equator. Their habitats are in
caves and trees that they make. Pythons use to live in cities and
towns. Ever since people started taking over their territory. Pythons
are Constrictors which means that they will squeeze the life out of
their prey to kill it. That they have caught. They will coil their selves
around their prey and with each breathe the snake will squeeze until
the prey can not breathe. Pythons will also eat Lizards, Caiman and
antelope. The python will need to eat at 4 and 5 times a year. The
python is one of world’s largest snakes the other largest snake is the
anaconda. The Pythons live’s for 20 to 30 years. Pythons will use
Constriction Several times. Then the prey will die with asphyxiation.
Sometimes Pythons will surprise their prey and then the prey will
suffocate their prey to death. Pythons have the color of their skin to
help them with their process, as pythons usually the color matches
with their habitat and their surroundings, Pythons never give any
opportunity for the prey to escape. The Python that lives in Africa
lives near water at the edge of forests. The Pythons predators are
crocodiles, birds of prey, cats, and pigs these predators attack them
when they are small. These predators kill them for food. When the
Python is big it can even eat crocodiles and gazelles. Pythons do not
live in groups. They hunt alone. The python that lives in trees are
about 7 feet long. When it is in the leaves in the high forest branches
then they can sneak up in the tree and grab a bird. When the prey
stops breathing it’s swallows it whole. Pythons are excellent
swimmers they also spend a lot a time in the water. This is even how
they catch their food. This is one of their ambush techniques to how
to get food. They lie submerged in a steam or a slow-moving river.
They only put their heads out of the water. They wait for a bird or
small mammal. That comes near the water’s edge. They usually hunt

2. in the water during the dry season. The snake is about 30, ft in a
length. There are 7 species of the python snake. The well known
python is the reticulated python that reaches about of the length of 30
feet. The Reticulated python is the nocturnal nature. That prefers to
live in a solitary life. Pythons have special little claws called spurs.
Adult pythons are about 5-6m (15-20ft). Pythons even live on
Southeast Asia. The Pythons weight is 90.7kg (2.0016ft). Pythons are
also known to be very clam animals exactly the Burmese Pythons.
The Burmese is the most commonly found in managed situations.
The Reticulated Pythons also can swim in the Pacific Ocean. This is
how the reticulated pythons live in the islands in the Pacific Ocean.
Pythons other predators are birds, carnivorous mammals. These
animals kill the python when it is young. Large frogs, large insects
and spiders and even other snakes, adult pythons get attacked by
eagles, lions and leopards. Some Pythons live in Australia. Pythons
do not often kill humans. Unless the snake is stressed. The some
pythons are 23 inches long. The females are bigger than the males.
Pythons can live up to 40 years in captivity. The pythons strap can till
if prey is near by. They start eating by the preys head. When the
python has a big meal it will never eat for one year. Pythons can lay
100, 75 and 15 eggs. The mother incubates them for 2-3 months and
aggressively defends her eggs the hatching is 18-24 inches in length.
Some pythons lay 12 and 36 eggs. The pythons wraps around her
eggs to kept them warm. The mothers warm their eggs with
“shivering,” this involves rhythmic contractions of muscles, the mother
python can amazingly raise the temperature of her eggs up of few
degrees. It takes lot of energy, to do this. The mother will reproduce
again for 2 to 3 years. When she loses weight after the eggs are
hatched and ready to live on their own. The new born pythons usually
have brighter colors then their parents. The biggest reason why the
pythons are being threatened because people are killing them for
their beautiful skin to make snake skin pants, vests, cowboy boots,
and shoes. The python’s biggest main predator is man. That is what I
know about Pythons.
