The Python Molurus Bivittatus (Burmese Python) is one of the 6 largest snakes in the world. It can grow to 7.6 meters on average and weigh over 90 kg. The largest python ever recorded measured 515 meters and weighed 1000 pounds (453.5 kg). Although pythons are carnivorous, they rarely attack humans. Their diet consists primarily of appropriately-sized birds and mammals. They mainly dwelled in nocturnal rainforest, so they has become endangered species due to the rapidly decrease of habitats.
