Indian Python (Python molurus)
The Indian Python, also called black-tailed python or Asian rock python, is one of the largest snakes, with an average of almost 10 feet.
These types of pythons have muscular bodies with light yellow to almost black hues and dark brown blotches.
They inhabit various habitats, including grasslands, marshes, rocky foothills, and open forests. Indian Pythons often live near water, highlighting their excellent swimming ability.
Moreover, these nocturnal hunters use their powerful constricting abilities to catch and subdue their prey, mainly mammals and birds. Although they usually prey on small animals, they hunt larger prey such as deer or antelope.
