Yes, the jungle carpet python (a type of carpet python) can be a pet, but it's essential to have the proper reptile keeper's license and to be aware of their potential for a snappy temperament, especially as juveniles. They require a securely enclosed habitat with a thermal gradient (warm and cool zones), humidity control, hiding spots, and a freshwater bowl. Their diet consists of appropriately sized frozen rodents, and they can live for 20-30 years with consistent, proper care.
