Summary

[edit]
Description One of Australia’s more beautiful pythons, this aptly named snake has a glossy, jet-black head and neck and from 70 to 100 dark bands across the rest of its body, which can be cream through red-brown in color. Black-headed pythons are usually not aggressive and often move away from disturbances, retreating to burrows or hiding when threatened. During warm months, they are nocturnal, but may be more active during the day in cooler weather. They tend to live in woodlands, open forests, and grasslands. Other common names for the Black head python are tar-pot and black-headed rock snake.
