P. reticulatusৰ মূৰ

অজগৰ সমগ্ৰ এছিয়া মহাদেশৰ স্থানীয় সাপবোৰৰ ভিতৰত আটাইতকৈ বৃহৎ সাপৰ প্ৰজাতি৷ সুমাত্ৰাত পোৱা প্ৰায়ভাগ অজগৰ সাপৰেই দেহৰ দৈৰ্ঘ্য ১.৫-৬.৫ মিটাৰ পৰ্যন্ত আৰু ওজন ১-৭৫ কিলোগ্ৰাম পৰ্যন্ত হয়৷ [5]

লাওখোলাৰ চিত্ৰ

ইহঁতৰ ৰঙৰ সাজোন অতি জটিল জ্যামিতিক সাজোন, য'ত বিভিন্ন ৰং সন্নিবিষ্ট হৈ থাকে। পিঠিত কাষৰ ফালে সুক্ষ্ম চিহ্ন আৰু মধ্যাংশ পাতলীয়া ৰঙেৰে সজ্জিত হীৰাকৃতিৰ এটা শ্ৰেণী থাকে। বিস্তৃত ভৌগলিক পৰিসৰৰ এই প্ৰজাতিটোৰ, আকাৰ, ৰং আদিৰ যথেষ্ট ভিন্নতা দেখা পোৱা যায়।

বিতৰণ

Reticulated pythons are found in Southeast Asia from the Nicobar Islands, northeast India, Bangladesh, Burma, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Singapore, east through Indonesia and the Indo-Australian Archipelago (Sumatra, the Mentawai Islands, the Natuna Islands, Borneo, Sulawesi, Java, Lombok, Sumbawa, Sumba, Flores, Timor, Maluku, Tanimbar Islands) and the Philippines

টেক্স'নমি

Three subspecies have been proposed,[6] but are not recognised in the Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS). The color and size can vary a great deal among the subspecies described. Geographical location is a good key to establishing the subspecies, as each one has a distinct geographical range.

বাসস্থান

The reticulated python lives in rain forests, woodlands, and nearby grasslands. It is also associated with rivers and is found in areas with nearby streams and lakes. An excellent swimmer, it has even been reported far out at sea and has consequently colonised many small islands within its range. [7]

Their natural diet includes mammals and occasionally birds. Small specimens up to 3–4 m (10–14 ft) long eat mainly rodents such as rats, whereas larger individuals switch to prey such as Viverridae (e.g. civets and binturongs), and even primates and pigs. Near human habitation, they are known to snatch stray chickens, cats, and dogs on occasion. [8] [9]

প্ৰজনন

Oviparous, females lay between 15 and 80 eggs per clutch. At an optimum incubation temperature of 31–32 °C (88–90 °F), the eggs take an average of 88 days to hatch.Hatchlings are at least 2 feet (61 cm) in length.[7]
