I doubt the claims they've made regarding the snake are true. Reasons detailed here.

Big snake, but the picture does not seem to be a 50-footer. Check out Fluffy on this page (search "Fluffy"). She is 24 feet.

I'd have thought the world's largest snake would be a politician somewhere.

"...the snake, which was caught last year but only recently put on public display, eats three or four dogs a month."

I'm all for feeding snakes to dogs, but I really, really hate the idea of feeding dogs, or even cats, to snakes.

There's video of it at msnbc.com: 49 feet long, weighs 984 pounds, says the report.

Snark: I'd prefer to use politicians, but even this snake isn't big enough to swallow fat men...
