Field Notes

Description:

Also known as the "scrub python".

Habitat:

Large semi-urban yard/garden adjacent to a disturbed remnant patch of forest.

Notes:

This beautiful python was captured in the degraded forest beside our house. These guys brought it by to sell but I don't buy wildlife. I am not optimistic about what happened to it.
