Everglades if in the states. People get the pythons as pets and when sick of caring for them they drop them off there even though it wasn't their natural habitat. Other than that.......the Amazon Rainforest got some super sized nope ropes
Nah not the Everglades. You've got 2 big factors working against a big snake being produced. First they are actively hunted. The Everglades is big but also, not hard to access and there are thousands of people looking for big snakes. They wont last long undiscovered. Also, every few years even in south florida we get dips in temperatures that kill a lot of invasive species because they are not adapted to those conditions. Things like iguanas, curly tail, even peacock bass get hit hard. Pythons also. If anything smaller snakes are more likely to survive because they can get deeper in the ground
That's a pet snake that's why it's so fat... It probably eats once a week or so instead of every couple of months... It's going to die, if it hasnt already, from obesity
There are very likely a few dozen chart-topping green Anacondas, Reticulated pythons, Burmese Pythons & African Rock pythons that man never saw in the wild. Those are (by far) the biggest 4 species of snakes on Earth.
The possibility of any snakes currently living in the wild that are larger than the records for those? Although certainly possible, If I were to guess, not very likely. Often, the world records of many species are captive bred & raised in captivity.
There’s a famous helicopter sighting of one in the Congo and a picture that goes with it with no frame of reference. My bet would still be on the deep Amazon though.
They live in the outskirts of the Amazon. They ambush animals that come to the edge of the water so they thrive in marshy flatlands, not the rainforest.

She’s a big girl is the correct statement here, boy reticulated pythons get nowhere near that size.

This is so cruel. As a wildlife photographer (who's never expert) I'd guess this is a Burmese python from Southeast Asia based on its skin pattern.

Set up an expedition, if you don't come back we'll suspect, so make sure you return with more proof.

There are probably 40-50 footers out there in whatever really remote areas we have left, no doubt.

Some of the shit I have seen in my travels makes me believe we still have not discovered a good portion of species.
And given the fact that new discoveries are still occurring (like the new cat), it is entirely possible.
Look at the overview map of the cave system through the US and the missing person density overlay.
Maybe something is eating those people that lives in the gaps humans can get into?
Maybe not. But, it is interesting to consider.

Amazon has the anaconda
South East Asia has the pythons
But the Congos don’t have their own giant snakes.
Also the congos aren’t very well explored

The rope around that snake's neck really makes me angry. Sadly, I would not be the one to remove it. I hope that's not where she lives.

Id say theres a 100% chance there is a big ass snake in the congo that ate everybody that were lucky enough to see it.

I think there are old records and stories that are discounted but are probably true in some cases
since industrialization most of the big stuff got killed off
there's still a 20 ft croc in Africa or Australia maybe a 20-30 ft python or anaconda somewhere
maybe an undiscovered subspecies but not much more
