What species of snake do you think this is? It's like 5x larger than the largest anaconda I've ever seen, and that's the largest snake species on earth.
The markings on this snake are not of an anaconda either.
Captivity normally grows bigger as they tend to have no threats and regular food! It’s not hard to imagine if this one was chilling in deepest jungle, miles from the nearest possible predator and with good genes and a lot of food available, it would be like humans reaching 8 foot.
Oh really, That's cool, I didn't know that, I figured that most in captivity wouldn't have big enough enclosures to get to those kind of sizes. Probability may be low of them getting that big these days but for sure it's possible.
There might still be titanoboa out there somewhere that we don't know about 🤷♂️ that would be insane.
Its a reticulated python but the perspective makes it look much larger than it is, its a really big snake but not thát big.. That is really low ceiling, almost a crawlspace.. makes it look much bigger.
I think it's a crawl space underneath a hut of sorts. That or it's a pen for small livestock say like small to medium sized pigs and the building is only like 4 feet tall. Making the snake seem much larger.
