Pythons' Claws Parts of Legs Pythons' claws are really parts ot fully developed legs inside the snakes' bodies. The claws are all that protrude from the skin. They can be moved, and are used as weapons. Pythons are the largest snakes, but different types vary in length from 6 to 33 feet. They are favorites of circus "snake charmers." As such, they become affectionate, often refuse food from anyone but their owners. However, most of them are vicious. They will attack a man, but cannot swallow him unless he is narrow shouldered. •prre Pet Ftrvfltai tans find enjoyment in pit !!**• flies.
