The green tree python (Morelia viridis syn. Chondropython viridis) is a species of python native to New Guinea, islands in Indonesia, and Cape York Peninsula in Australia. Living generally in trees, the green tree python mainly hunts and eats small reptiles and mammals. Hatchlings are lemon-yellow with broken stripes and spots of purple and brown, or golden or orange-red.
