They are often found near water and are sometimes semi-aquatic, but can also be found in trees. The Burmese python is one of the largest of all snakes, growing up to 8 metres (25 feet) and weighing up to 180 kg (400 pounds). It continues to grow throughout life and the great length is due to the presence of a large number of vertebrae. Females are typically larger than males.
