Yes they are legal. There other name for them is the scrub python. If you do a search you will find pics.
They can be quite aggresive and snappy and grow in excess of 5 Metres!

Just curious, is the scrub pythons that are in this thread the same ones that ate that little dog in QLD? and the one that ate the wallaby? They are huge!!!! But they are beautiful.
