LONGEST SNAKE IN CAPTIVITY AND EVER CAUGHT!

A 49ft, 990lb Reticulated Python has been in indonesia and is in a local indonesian zoo!!!!

I heard about this snake, and what I heard is shown by the photos. The snake has no damn room to move around!

Here this famous zoo has a world class attraction and they have put it in cramped quarters where it has trouble even turning around. Fluffy should escape, track down Jack Hanna, and internally digest his cheap behind.

The snake in Indonesia (also a Reticulated Python) is definitely not 49 feet long. It is probably maybe around 25 at most. The longest snake (proven) was just over 33 feet ...also a Reticulated. A 49 foot snake would be prodigious in size ...like crocodiles, snakes tend to increase substantially in size with length (in the same way an 18 foot Nile crocodile is a sheer monster compared to a 12 foot croc, and a 12 footer is also a mnster compared to an 8 footer). A 49 foot python would have a girth and length that could probably give one a major shocker like you can't believe.

Now, are such sizes possible? I doubt it, but I am certain therr are snakes longer than 33 feet ...in particular the larger pythons (eg Reticulated as well as the African Rock) and maybe a lucky Anaconda or two. Howver, the one in the pic is not 49 feet. I doubt most people woild want to see a pic of one if it existed.

There must be something about exotic creatures being named fluffy. Years ago my sister named her pet Tarantula fluffy.
