The fierce snake inhabits the black soil plains in the region where Queensland, South Australia and the Northern Territory borders converge. There is little in the way of cover or vegetation, the snakes utilising the deep cracks and fissures formed in the dry soil to escape predators and the searing heat
Taipans detect their prey by sensing movement and odour. They seem to have better eyesight than many other snakes. They flick their forked tongue rapidly in and out of the mouth, 'tasting' the presence on the air of potential prey animals. This chemical information is passed to the Jacobson's organ in the roof of the mouth, and then to the brain.
Behaviour typical of male combat has been recorded occurring in late winter between two large, but unsexed, individuals. During the approximately half-hour combat, the snakes intertwined, raised their heads and forebodies and "lashed out" at each other with closed mouths. Inland Taipan have also been observed presumably mating in the wild in late winter. Females with oviducal eggs can be found in mid-spring (second half of November). Clutch size ranges from 11-20, with 16 being the average. The eggs measure 6 x 3.5cm when laid and take 9-11 weeks to hatch at 27-30°C. Newly-hatched young have a total length of around 47cm long.
In captivity, females can produce two clutches within what would effectively be one breeding season.

There is no species called the Indian Taipan. The Taipan species is found exclusively in Australia. Assuming you meant the Inland Taipan - it's found in central Australia. The Coastal Taipan also inhabits New Guinea.
