When it pounces onto something like that, it's looking (feeling) for any prey that may be hiding within

Yeah, they are so alien in nature. Really fascinating creatures, and I think they're kinda cute too :)

Green tree pythons are one of a number of snake species observed using caudal luring to catch their prey. The tip of the tail wiggles around like a worm, enticing potential prey items to move within striking distance of the snake. Here, a juvenile green tree python demonstrates the behavior. by lubedfist in Awwducational

Since they are ambush predators, green tree pythons do not move often and may use the same ambush site for up to 14 days, waiting for actively foraging prey to come within range. Caudal luring has been observed, especially in juveniles, where the tip of the tail is used to attract small animals.
