Indian python (Python molurus) The Indian python is tan in colour with their body covered in dark brown blotches. This colouration provides them with excellent camouflage and helps them to ambush unsuspecting prey.
The colouration of these snakes is known to vary throughout its range. They are a large species, growing to an average length of around 10 feet. However, some specimens do get even larger than this.
They have heat-sensing pits in their upper and lower jaws. These pits are very sensitive to small change in temperature which helps them to locate warm-blooded prey.
