Chris,

I believe that image was taken in the Kimberly's, which is out of the range (by about 350kms) of baronii, so therefore it should be the type subspecies Liasis olivaceus olivaceus and its eating an Agile Wallaby.

Scott,

I thought I had seen somewhere that it was a barroni. My bad, and since you are a lot closer than I currently am (although I was born in Sydney), I will have to defer. LOL
