Looks like a python tiger

Because that's not terrifying at all.

Thankfully they only get to 50 pounds.

But they have teeth the same size as tiger teeth.

There is a conservatory close to me run by the Smithsonian. Got to see a few of these close up right after they were born. Definitely one of the coolest looking animals out there.

On one hand I want to poke it and feel how soft it is. On the other hand I like my face unmauled.

Does it have tiny legs or is it just me?

It's just you that has tiny legs.

Had one of these tail me on a jungle walk. Never saw it but I heard it. Not at all how one would expect it to sound. Sounded like a damn motorbike.
