This is an Olive Python from the Pilbara Region where I live, it's not my photo but I see them often when out doing my work, they can get up to 8 metres (26ft) in length. Cheers Barry

Sorry people I forgot to mention; what it's draging out of the water is a Rock wallabie a small kangaroo that stand around 3 foot tall, it will be swollowed whole & keep the snake happy for around 6 - 8 weeks. Cheers Barry
