This is captive Retic ( It's mine). Main habit for Reticulatus Python is in South East Asia. They're famous for its growth size. In here (Indonesia), A single Reticulatus Python can grow up more than 10 meters. With famous aggressive character and non-venom but hard binding way to kill prey. They also known as a hard-to-tamed snake as a pet, caused by their natural habits. But in Indonesia, mainly almost 2/3 amateur snake owner start with Reticulatus Python.
