Pythons
Pythons are a family of non-venomous snakes that are native to Africa, Asia and Australia. Pythons are ambush predators that use constriction to kill their prey. Unlike female boas, female pythons lay eggs. Pythons are hunted for their skin, which is used, like leather, to make shoes, handbags and other fashion accessories.

What is more dangerous pythons or boas?
They are the same because they both have enough power to kill a human but in my opinion I think the Boa is more dangerous.
a defense for pythons is usually strong constrictions around its prey or predator. It can also bite with powerful jaws.
Yes, but it would take a long time to digest the human body.
Do boa constrictors shed their skin?
yes and they can eat a whole hippo. Cool Huh?
All snakes shed their skin. Sidenote: hippos live in africa, and there are no boa species in africa big enough to eat a hippo. Even crocodiles won't dare go for a hippo. Hippos have been seen simply biting a crocodile in half. There are no snakes on earth (I don't even think a retic could) that could eat a hippo.

Type your answer here... anacondas can survive for a long time in water where as most of the snakes can't
Are green tree pythons good for begginer pets?
Absolutely not. Green tree pythons may look majestic and pretty but they are fairly very expensive and their equipment is very expensive too(and to care for them is quite difficult). I would recommend a tree Python for at least a 4th or 5th snake (and maybe even a 3rd) but not for a 2nd or a begginer snake.
Yes. Ball pythons are affectionate snakes and they will show it if you keep good care of them.
its is a material made from the snake skin. It feels like leather !! :)
