Indonesian villagers are claiming they have caught a python which is almost 15 metres (49 feet) long, according to local media reports.
If confirmed, it would be the longest snake ever held in captivity.

It is currently being kept in a zoo in the village of Curugsewu on the island of Java.

They said that the snake had only recently been put on public display and ate three or four dogs a month.

The old record was at less than 10 meters! :eek:

Too bad there wasn’t a photo. That would be something to see.

Does that mean they feed it dogs?!

What are they supposed to feed it, carrots and potatoes?:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

In that part of the world, dogs can be a fairly regular part of peoples diet, and if people eat them, then you can be damn sure that snakes do as well.

I have absolutely no problem with it. It’s part of their culture.

Mmm, I can vouch that originally, there was no photo on the link, but now there is, so I do think it is confirmed! 1/2 a ton!

How “big” was the fake Anaconda supposed to be in that silly movie?

One would think they would feed the snake badgers & mushrooms.

I misread the thread title and thought it said “Monty Python found!” My hopes were dashed after reading the story and seeing the picture. It appears as if the entire comedy troupe was swallowed by this creature.
