Python reticulatus, is a species of python found in Southeast Asia, Indonesia and the Indo-Australian Archipelago. Adults can grow to over 28 feet in length but normally grow to an average of 10-20 feet. They are the world's longest snakes and longest reptile, but are not the most heavily built. Like all pythons, they are non-venomous constrictors and normally not considered dangerous to humans. Although large specimens are powerful enough to kill an adult human, attacks are only occasionally reported. An excellent swimmer, python reticulatus has been reported far out at sea and has colonized many small islands within its range. The specific name is Latin meaning net-like, or reticulated, and is a reference to the complex color pattern. Here you may post messages or questions pertaining to all aspects and issues regarding the keeping, breeding, health, and conservation of Reticulated Pythons.
