Question Retics aggressive in the breeding season?

Hey everyone,
I recently heard that mature male retics get aggressive in the breeding season. I have done alot of research on these large snakes and I have never heard of this before.

How does a keeper deal with a large 15ft+ normally placid retic? I have heard horror stories of them so aggressive they have bitten them selves in the process!
How could this be prevented? I wouldn't want them to hurt themselves.
How long does this phase last and are the females aggressive as well?

Are there any other large species of snake that are aggressive in the breeding season as well?

This is the first time I have heard of this so please excuse my ignorant questions. :dumb:
