One thing I know for a fact is that carpet pythons were named for their pattern, not because they are terrestrial snakes. Jungles as well as most carpets are semi-arboreal snakes, meaning they spend time on the ground as well as in trees.Here are some pictures of various jungles of various ages climbing trees and vines at a well known breeder's facility. just cut and paste the link:
