Description
This 2 little guys are from Sydney Wildlife sanctuary in Darling Harbour where their natural environment is recreated ! They are beautiful snake !
Green Pythons are arboreal (tree dwellers). They hunt actively in trees for birds, lizards and other tree dwelling creatures. They ambush their prey in trees, hiding and hanging on with their strong bodies. They will often eat their prey while still hanging upside down from their tails and they have been known to lure their prey within striking distance by lying very still and wriggling their tail. Pythons are constrictors which means they coil their body around their prey, constricting and slowly suffocating their prey. Constriction causes the chest cavity to lapse, deflates the lungs and compresses the heart.
