Vladimir - Blood Python

Vladimir the Blood Python is known for his deep red coloration and surprisingly docile demeanor. While many Blood Pythons are known for being very spicy, Vlad has been an absolute sweetheart for us at the sanctuary. This chunky boy will grow to be one of the largest bodied snakes we have!

Vladimir - Blood Python

Vlad joined the Sanctuary as a donation from a blood python breeder here in Iowa in August of 2024. As one of our founders favorite snakes in the world, we were very excited to have him join our educational team! While he came as a little guy, he will eventually be one of the largest species we work with!

Vladimir is named after Vlad the impaler due to being a Blood Python. For such a chill snake, the name isn’t very fitting! While he isn’t the most explorative snake, he is one of the most fascinating! Despite being as long as only 6 -8 ft, they get about as thick as snakes that are much larger!

If heavy bodied snakes and misleading names are your thing, Vlad may be the perfect ambassador for you! Representing a calm demeanor and a deceiving name, Vlad is an amazing educational animal for many individuals.
