| definition: |
A python is a kind of snake. Its bite is not venomous, but it kills its prey by winding around its body and squeezing it until the animal cannot breathe. Pythons are dangerous to humans too. Pythons are native to Africa, Asia, and Australia, but some pythons have been brought to the United States and other countries.
In the United States, many pythons live in the state of Florida. Pythons have become a problem there because they kill too many of the native animals. |
