This python has been on the same tree for two months.. S/He must have had a good meal.
A python remaining in the same location, such as a tree, for an extended period like two months, strongly suggests it has recently consumed a very large meal. Pythons are constrictors that ambush their prey. After a successful hunt and consumption of a significant animal, such as a deer, antelope, or even a large bird, the snake enters a period of deep digestion.
During this digestive phase, the python’s metabolism slows down considerably, and it becomes largely inactive. Moving or expending energy would divert resources away from the complex process of breaking down a large meal. This period of inactivity allows the snake to efficiently process the nutrients from its prey, which can take weeks or even months depending on the size of the meal and the ambient temperature. The tree provides a secure and elevated resting place, offering both safety from predators and a stable environment for digestion.
