8th June 2012 Titanoboa - The Largest Snake In The Planet

June 08A
The Titanoboa, the largest and the most horrific snake in the planet, has now been recreated and exhibited in the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History in Washinton, from the skeleton found in Colombia. It measures 14 metres long, weighs one ton, and lived some 60 million years ago.

The comparison in the insert of the photo below shows just one section of it's very long vertebra, many times the size of that of an anaconda, which would have frightened even the bravest man. If I should as much as glimpse merely the shadow of a Titanoboa, I would just drop dead on the spot!!!
