Pythons

---

Ball pythons are medium-sized snakes native to West and Central Africa. They get their name from their habit of curling into a tight ball when threatened. They are known for their gentle temperament and are popular pets. They come in a wide variety of color morphs.

Carpet pythons are known for their striking patterns that resemble an ornate carpet- hence the name. They can grow between 6-13 feet long and vary in color and pattern depending on the subspecies and region.

Short tail and blood pythons are known for their stout, thick bodies and short tails. They typically grow to 4-6 feet long but are very heavy-bodied. They have a reputation of being spicy, though captive-bred individuals are often calmer.

Woma pythons are native to semi-arid regions of Australia. They are medium-sized, typically growing 4-8 feet long, with slender bodies and smooth, glossy scales. Unlike many pythons, woman’s lack heat-sensing pits and primarily hunt using sight and smell.
