This 'Python' is a common name for Nonpoisonous snakes of boa and python family. Pythons are large and muscular, and kill their prey by squeezing, or constricting, until it suffocates. Although most feed on small mammals, some large species can kill and swallow small pigs and goats. Rarely have they killed humans.Normally Pythons range from 1 to 10 m (upto 33 ft) long and weigh up to 145 kg . The female lays 15 to 100 eggs, and broods them until they hatch.
