At 2,500 pounds and as long as a school bus, Titanoboa could swallow crocodiles. It lived after dinosaurs died out, and changes scientists' ideas about 'how big a snake can be.'


Have you seen a snake? Maybe yes, maybe no. But I'm sure you haven't seen a 43-foot and 2,500-pound behemoth. A fossil of the gigantic snake was recently found in Columbia. Imagine the super-snake's appetite. Imagine how it went wild and wilder. Gross!
