Here she is!!! Meet Nagani, the Burmese python!

We are so excited that Billabong’s worst-kept secret is finally out on display!

Nagani arrived a couple of months ago, but has been in the reptile room while her new enclosure on the Exotic Animals Boardwalk was completed.

Regular visitors have watched the progress as the water feature, rocks and plants were installed. Looks great!

Shifting to her new quarters was a team effort.  At 4 metres in length, and weighing a whopping 23 kilos, it requires 3 or 4 rangers to handle her.

This magnificent python is now permanently on display, directly opposite the American alligators.

Did you Know? Burmese pythons are an invasive pest in the Florida Everglades, where they are decimating native wildlife—and they are large enough to consume an adult ‘gator!

Apart from being a stunningly beautiful reptile, Nagani is here to help educate visitors on the havoc posed by invasive species throughout the world.   Come and see her soon!
