Prosecutors Got One Conviction In A Snake King’s Murder, And Now They Are Going After Another

A Centralian carpet python lies coiled at Sydney Wildlife World on September 11, 2009 which features Australian flora and fauna set amongst natural habitats and eco-systems. The non-venomous Centralian carpet python found only in Australia's Northern Territory, uses its colouring to help it blend in with the red sand and rock found in its usual arid desert habitat.
