African rock python
The African rock python is one of the largest snake species in Africa, known for its impressive size and strength. It can grow up to 20 feet long and weigh over 200 pounds. This non-venomous constrictor primarily inhabits savannas, forests, and wetlands, where it uses its camouflage to blend into the environment.
These pythons are skilled hunters, preying on a variety of animals, including birds, rodents, and even larger mammals. They are known for their ability to swallow prey whole, thanks to their flexible jaws. The African rock python is also a popular subject in wildlife documentaries due to its fascinating behavior and adaptability.
