I just love listening to both he and John every month "On the Track" I believe that snakes can grow upto lengths of 30 feet but I can't believe their are snakes that can grow to 40 feet and larger <br />Because one has never been found. I have read where snakeskins have been found measuring 50 feet in length and more but this is meaningless. I use to own hundreds of snakes as a young lad and could easily stretch a 4-foot skin to twice its length.Aubreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16631044010755502678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16505569.post-68209907234146081962009-08-08T12:21:33.131+01:002009-08-08T12:21:33.131+01:00There is no bio-mechanical reason a snake cannot g...There is no bio-mechanical reason a snake cannot grow to 40, 50 or even 60 feet long. I think the green anaconda occationlly throws up these huge freak individuals. It seems that anacondas grow bigger in rivers than in swamps. This would make finding giants harder. I would be looking in remote, rarley visited tributaries and lakes linked with them. Columbia, Peru, Boliva, deepest Brazil and Guyana being the best bets. Snake expert and explorer Mark O'Shea told me that If a big female can live undisturbed and with a plentiful supply of food and putting most of her enegy into growing, she could become 50 feet or more in length.Richard Freemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17142154646917043849noreply@blogger.com
