What are the natural enemies of pythons?

Pythons are one of the more primitive snake species in the world today, and there are many natural enemies in nature, because pythons also have smaller ones, such as tree pythons. For small pythons, many predators, including larger snake "relatives", are their natural enemies. Let's take a look at what the python's natural enemies are.

Caiman

Caiman crocodile is a general name of the genus Caiman crocodile of the family alligator family. It belongs to small and medium-sized crocodiles and is related to alligators. Young alligators and young alligators mainly feed on invertebrates, especially Coleoptera insects, which also eat snails, shrimp and crabs. Semi-adults and adults mainly feed on vertebrates, including aquatic and terrestrial vertebrates, and predation strategies include resting, attacking passing terrestrial vertebrates, lying in the water and attacking approaching fish and other aquatic vertebrates. sometimes the body and tail are used to drive fish to shallow water or to narrow shores in open water for predation.

Pumas

Pumas, also known as mountain lions, American golden cats, horses, etc., are similar in size to leopards, but have no pattern and small skulls, inhabit all kinds of environments except tropical rain forests, are good at climbing and jumping, can move all day, like to live alone, eat meat, often hunt and kill all kinds of vertebrates by ambush, mainly feed on wild animals rabbits, sheep and deer, and steal livestock and poultry when they are hungry.

Eagles

Eagle generally refers to small to medium-sized diurnal Falcon-shaped birds, majestic in posture and ferocious in temperament. Zoologically, it is called a raptor and can catch mice, snakes, hares or birds. Large eagle birds (sculptures) can capture goats, sheep and deer, often inhabit canyons, woodlands, woods, etc., and often soar in the air during breeding season.

Lynx

Lynx, also known as lynx, equine lynx, lynx, wild beaver, etc., is much larger than a cat, lives in forest and scrub areas, dense forests and rocks are more common, like living alone, good at climbing and swimming, strong hunger tolerance, can lie in a place for a few days, not afraid of cold, feed on rodents, rabbits, etc., but also prey on small wild boars and deer, and the nests are built in rock caves or tree holes.

Conclusion: the above are basically the natural enemies of pythons in their infancy, and the only wild animals capable of posing a threat to their lives are Pumas and caimans, but usually Pumas avoid them when they see them, and Caiman crocodiles occasionally become food for them, so there are basically no natural enemies except humans.
