The white- lipped python according to Brian A.Kend's book inhabits the nothern islands of Dauan and Saibai in the Torres Strait. There are also unsubstantiated records that it occurs on Badu,Boigu and Thursday Island(Barker & Barker, 1994).
Ehmann(1992) states that the species may be present along the Pascoe River at the northern tip of the Cape York peninsula, based on sight observations.
I have kept a few white lips in the past and the NG one's are nasty buggers, always striking out, and take month's to settle down, just to stop striking at whatever moves past a viv's glass.
I have had CB hatchies from Bob Clark, and they were sods to get feeding, but once started were good feeders and handled well. They are a harder species to work with and breed than most pythons and have some special requirements. Awesome looking snakes though.
Doesn't look like I will getting that species again for a while though, not unless those lucky people start breeding.
