Description
In a zoo, the term “Python” typically refers to a large, non-venomous snake that belongs to the Pythonidae family. Pythons are known for their incredible size, with some species growing over 20 feet long. These snakes are constrictors, meaning they kill their prey by wrapping around it and squeezing until the prey suffocates. Zoos often feature pythons in reptile exhibits, where they are displayed in enclosures designed to mimic their natural habitats, such as dense forests or grasslands. Visitors can learn about the python’s diet, behavior, and role in the ecosystem, as well as the importance of conserving their natural environments.
