Carpet Python

Morelia spilota

Description:

Black and ivory coloured python.

Habitat:

Flexible habitat preferences. Can be found in dense lowland forest, shrubland, grassland, rocky areas, and in highly altered environments including agricultural and urban areas.

Notes:

Photographed outside Tolga Country Lodge on the Atherton Tableland. This is actually a pet python, which was handed to me by a teenager who told me to hold it while she took a call on her mobile! I'm still not sure of the subspecies though, any help would be greatly appreciated.
