This is a Flying Drago [Draco volans]. Found in S.E. Asia, they don't really fly but rather glide
through the air from tree to tree much like flying squirrels. They can grow to a length of up
to 22 cm [8.7 in], including the tail. Besides gliding, the males will show off to the females
by flashing his "wings" about ...or course, he would. Some things never change.

This is a Rainbow Python that lives at the Reptile Zoo, Fountain Valley, California.
It's very rare in that it is not its own species but rather a genetic oddity that carries
both the motley gene and the golden child gene.

Is it not venomous or poisonous as pythons and boas are constrictors. So, as long
as they're used to people, well fed and treated nicely, they're usually pretty easy to
handle without too much concern. I'm sure Salma Hayek was very happy about that.

Ever: "Beautiful. But why was Salma Hayek very happy about that?"
