So, the image and the claim about world’s largest snake are untrue. Hence, the claim that the reptile is 134-foot-long is false too.Ĭoming to the claim about the number of animals and human beings killed by the snake, there is no such report on the Internet that indicates about such a massive tragedy.Īccording to the posts, Africa’s Royal British commandos killed the snake. Though the reticulated python can grow slightly longer in length, the green anaconda is the heaviest. Also, this kind grows up to about 30 feet. The posts also claim that the reptile is “134 feet long and 2067 kgs.” According to National Geographic, the green anaconda is the world’s largest snake and it can weigh up to 550 kgs – which is far less than what the posts claim. As a part of their documentary, the Smithsonian Channel asked sculptor Kevin Hockley to create a full-size replica of Titanoboa. This is false as Amazon River is located in South America not Africa. Talking about the caption, it claims that the snake is found in Africa’s Amazon River. Further, a reverse search reveals that the image of the snake is that of a normal-sized anaconda on which the surrounding and the men were added. If you look closely, the surface where the snake’s body meets the ground appears distorted. There are many aspects that indicate that the image is edited.
