What are the natural enemies of python in nature?

Adult pythons basically have no natural enemies, and only large carnivores can pose a threat to them. Pythons are still weak when they are young, and general aggressive animals can catch them. Adult pythons are very powerful and generally will not be caught.

Pythons have strong climbing ability, can move freely on land and water, generally move at night, fall asleep during the day, are omnivorous, mainly feed on birds, rodents, small mammals, reptiles and amphibians, have sharp teeth, and hunt quickly and accurately, and sometimes enter village farmhouses to prey on poultry and livestock; Sometimes male pythons hurt people. Laying eggs in April every year, starting in June, laying 8-30 eggs each time, and in most cases, it can reach 100. Python likes heat and fears cold, and is very sensitive to climate change. For example, python is highly active when the temperature is above 30℃. At 25℃, the activity is average; At 20℃, it is basically inactive or rarely active; 15℃ or so, it will basically enter a lethargic state; When the temperature reaches below 5℃, the chances of python death will be great. In addition, exposure to strong sunlight for too long can easily lead to the death of pythons.

Reticulated python is the longest snake in the world at present, but it is not the heaviest snake. At present, the heaviest snake in the world is boa constrictor.

I think the boa constrictor is the heaviest snake in the world, and it should be calculated on average, because Guinness World Records shows that a reticulated python was selected in the record of the longest captive snake in September 20 12, with a body length of 7.67 meters and a weight of 158.8 kg, which is higher than the highest weight of the recorded boa constrictor.

Due to the invasion of Burmese python. The number of many local protozoa has dropped sharply, and finally, the relevant local institutions clean up a certain number of Burmese pythons every year.

Activities vary from season to season, and they are generally inactive in winter. When the temperature rises above 25℃, it only appears briefly in the afternoon. In spring and autumn, after sunrise, there is little activity at night. When the weather is hot, I often eat in the evening and rest in the shade in the afternoon. Active after a high fever. There is little activity in rainy days, and when it is windy, I go into the cave to hide.
