55ft snake
A photograph purporting to show a 55ft snake found in a forest in China has become an internet sensation. It was originally posted in a thread on the website of the People’s Daily, the official Communist Party newspaper in China. The thread claimed the snake was one of two enormous boas found by workers clearing forest for a new road outside Guping city, Jiangxi province.
They apparently woke up the sleeping snakes during attempts to bulldoze a huge mound of earth. “On the third dig, the operator found there was blood amongst the soil, and with a further dig, a dying snake appeared,” said the post. “At the same time, another gold coloured giant boa appeared with its mouth wide open. The driver was paralysed with fear, while the other workers ran for their lives.
“By the time the workers came back, the wounded boa had died, while the other snake had disappeared. The bulldozer operator was so sick that he couldn’t even stand up.” The post claimed that the digger driver was so traumatised that he suffered a heart attack on his way to hospital and later died. The dead snake was 55ft (16.7m) long, weighed 300kg and was estimated to be 140 years old, according to the post.

Gloomy, i read an article about anacondas before.. During their mating season, how male anacondas strive to survive for a female anaconda. And the picture is still in my head even it was 15 years ago.. I really hate snakes, i don't eat them kanmato..
Boa constrictors sometimes grow to that enormous size.Large ones sometimes feast on buffalo and antelope.
I think she will be having her eggs.
According to that report,the snake was 140 years old when it died.Snakes do not live that long.
This being in funnies means this is a false news ( Dracula Style) I think :-(
Visper u ate or hate!!
Yeah, why in funnies?
Visper, last night me and my hubby watched BBC... about Anacondas. they're superb! :) Anacondas give birth to live little boas, not as eggs. cool videos! :)
