Indian Rock Python

Indian Rock Python
The Indian rock python feeds on warm-blooded animals. Like other constrictors, this snake wraps its muscular body around its prey tightly to suffocate it. Indian pythons grow to a length of approximately 4 meters (13 ft), although larger individuals have been reported. Pythons are members of the most primitive group of living snakes; they may hiss, but are essentially deaf and mute.
