Large, lean, and muscular describe pythons. They have a 35-foot maximum height and a 300-pound weight limit. Although pythons come in a variety of colors and have different markings, they are typically brown or olive in tone with white underbellies.

Since they both kill their prey similarly, pythons and boa constrictors are frequently mistaken for one another. The difference between the two species is that pythons have more bones and teeth.

Pythons have a reputation for methodically killing their live victims. Although pythons primarily prey on tiny mammals like mice, they have been known to kill and consume considerably larger species like pigs and cats.

They quickly seize a living animal with their jaws before wrapping their bodies around it to kill their prey. Constriction is the medical term for this. Before the animal’s bones are crushed, the python pauses the constricting process when the animal has suffocated. Afterward, the python opens its mouth wide and starts to consume its prey, usually head first. The snake’s internal muscles operate to move the prey down its length while also breaking down the animal.

The Indian python is often used by snake handlers and charmers to preform tricks. The royal python (also called the ball python), native to central Africa, can curl itself up into a ball. Finally, the diamond python is a large variety of yellow-and-black constricting snake native to Australia, so named for the diamond-shaped markings on its back.

There is some debate over whether or not people should keep pythons as pets in captivity, and some varieties are riskier to keep than others. Ball pythons are typically thought of as beginner-friendly snakes to care for and can survive for more than 20 years. Since they can be hazardous, other python species are typically discouraged from being kept as household pets.
