LOL, no that Bob Clark, he's the worlds formost breeder of reticulated pythons, I post on his websites forums frquently, bobclark.com
And yes, very big kitten. Ive had several large pythons and boas that were tame enough to wrap around you and handle frequently, they get used to humans very easily and dont see us as a food source, now Wild Anacondas and Retics, they have been known to eat small humans.
