The dimensions of the pythons range from 1 to 6-7 m (mesh python). The color is very diverse: from more or less monochrome (brown or brownish-brown tones) to rather brownish-spotted, woody species (green python) may be green. The pythons preserved the rudiments of the pelvic girdle and the hind limbs. The rudiments of the hind limb outside are quite noticeable in the form of claws on the sides of the anal hole - the so-called anal spurs. The distinctive feature of the pythons is two lungs, as in humans, while most other snakes have no left lung, and the right extended and extended in lengthDistribution [edit | edit the code] Distributed in the Eastern Hemisphere: sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, Australia. Lifestyle [edit | edit the code] They inhabit mainly in tropical forests, savannahs, swampy areas; fewer species live in the deserts. Often pythons settle near water; good swim and dive. Many species climb trees; there are almost completely woody species. Active mainly at dusk and at night.. Power [edit | edit the code] They feed mainly on mammals (large pitons swallow jackals, porcupines, etc.), as well as birds, large lizards; young pythons eat small rodents, lizards, and, less commonly, frogs. I get caught, grabbing her teeth and simultaneously squeezing the rings of her body. The extraction is swallowed entirely, which is facilitated by the structure of the jaw apparatus of snakes. They can do without food for a long time (up to 1.5 years)Females of pythons are usually larger and more powerful than males. During the mating, the male fights the body about the female and scratches it with anal spurs. All pythons are egg-laying snakes. The peculiarity of the pythons is the ability to nourish the egg laying, and, due to the reduction of the muscles of the body, the masonry temperature is 12-15 ° C above the ambient temperature. Interestingly, it is precisely the pitons that postpone the greatest number of eggs among reptiles [source not specified 1433.
