Default Curious python
I was cleaning one of my reptile cages tonight, and for the first time ever, my Jungle Carpet Python sat quite still and contentedly while I fussed with the camera and snapped a shot. In fact, she was downright curious tonight.

This is Zoot, and she has been a very elusive little subject.

Zoot has that mean look in its eye. Great shot though. Cheers, Bernz

Well, there are so many pythons named 'Monty', but she's a girl so we wanted a Monty Python name, but a female one.

So, her full name is 'Bad, Naughty, Evil Zoot' from Holy Grail
