Green tree python

Morelia viridis

Description:

Hatchlings are lemon-yellow with broken stripes and spots of purple and brown, or golden or orange-red. The majority of captive-bred individuals (the species is native to the Pacific) can be trained to accept handling. With the development of artificial incubation, this species became much more available in captivity.

Habitat:

Private home - this snake is captive bred and owned by a wildlife photographer.

Notes:

I don't usually photograph captive animals (except for a wildlife rescue facility and occasionally a zoo) but I will likely never see one in the wild.
