Fun Facts!
The Royal Ball Python (Python regius) are called Ball Pythons because of their defensive posture of coiling into a tight ball with their heads protected in the centre of the coil. The name Royal Python is believed to be derived from the fact that many African rulers were known to have worn live pythons as jewellery. They are not poisonous, instead killing their prey by constriction.
