Snake hunters this week caught the longest Burmese python ever documented in Florida that measured an eye-popping 19 feet, authorities said.
“We brought the snake to the Conservancy to be officially measured and documented. We wanted to donate this find to science,” he said in the conservancy’s statement. The heaviest Burmese python found in Florida was documented in 2022 and weighed 215 pounds, the conservancy said. “We had a feeling that these snakes get this big, and now we have clear evidence. Her genetic material may prove valuable for an eventual understanding of the founding population of South Florida,” Easterling said.National Geographic.
