you know the most intersting thing i always wondered was how does a scrub python overcome a large mammal??does it ambush it??
anyway another forum member who has seen how they actually do it described that they set them selves up just above where wallabys pass by stretch out and touch the ground to get distance correct,then retract and sit and wait.
when a poor wallaby comes along they drop onto it and must ride it for a few metres before fully trapping the wallaby in its coils,constricting the prey .
This would be quite amusing to watch a python riding along on a wallaby.
