Snakes can
be very frightening. I mean, jump on Wikipedia and read the first line
on the page titled ‘Snake’ and it just sounds bloody awful.
Snakes are
elongated, legless carnivorous reptiles that can be distinguished from
legless lizards by their lack of eyelids and external ears.
That’s
rank. They can swallow prey much bigger than themselves simply because
they have ridiculously mobile jaws. Most snakes are venomous and
frankly, the idea of coming face to face with a big one scares the
living daylights out of me.
So when we
stumbled across these pictures of the biggest fu¢king fu¢k off snake
we’ve ever seen, we may have let out a pathetic whimper. I mean, what
chance do humans have when nature can cook up something that
frightening?
Anyway,
the snake was discovered after an Australian sheep farmer was confused
about the disappearance of some of his sheep. A few weeks later he put
up an electric fence. And then a week later, he found this monster.
If you
didn’t read that properly for whatever reason, that is a massive python.
They’re properly aggressive and have teeth they use to hold their prey
while they wrap around and constrict them.
Oh and if
the pictures don’t give you a decent perspective on just how big this
snake is, those wires are about 10 inches apart. So that mouth is about
two feet wide.
Just think
about that for a second. All this has done is add to the impressive
list of things which prove that EVERYTHING IN AUSTRALIA WANTS TO KILL
YOU!
