Dear MEL School’s
Topic Readers,
Python's homing
trick stuns scientists
Pythons, native to
South and Southeast Asia, are among the largest snakes. They eat, maybe better
to say swallow, anything that has lived until it is killed by them, from a bird
to deer, even a crocodile as shown in Vol.795.
Researchers found
that they are not only a big eater but also somewhat intelligent to be able to
find the way to their home even they are taken and released dozens of
kilometers away. And surprisingly, they seem to be very much motivated to go
home by taking as long as 100 to 300 days.
How do they do
that? What sort of navigational features do they have?
Enjoy reading and
learning about the mystery of the world largest and longest snake.
