Re: retics in action
That is an awesome video - seeing it going up the tree like that is phenomenal.

Re: retics in action
Thanks for sharing. It really is amazing how an animal that large, and with no appendages can climb a tree that fast!

Re: retics in action

Re: retics in action
geat video mate
scrub pythons move in the same way at the same speed
carpets in general will climb like that
imo with retic's and scrubs attaining roughly the same lengths it gives them more surface area so greater speed
the retic moved at a fair speed on the ground as well
thanks for sharing that mate
cheers shaun

Re: retics in action
That retic climbed ~20-30 vertical feet in seconds....incredible! As you mentioned Shaun, climbing style is like a carpet. Also reminds me of BRBs.
Thanks for sharing.

Re: retics in action
Nice video, and a really great site overall. Just browsing the reptile page for a few seconds, I found videos on African Rock Pythons, Adders, Grass snakes, Green anacondas, burrowing pythons. Oh yeah, I got that sucker bookmarked. Thanks for sharing!

Re: retics in action
^^ Agreed! The tiger was lucky the retic didn't get a good grip on it, or it would have been lights out!
