I didn't take this photo but when kate showed it to me I had to share. Sure wouldn't want to have him gnawing on my nose (or anywhere else for that matter). It's a scrub python for those that are wondering.

it doesn't look computer generated to me (i'm not an expert) but it does look like a very extreme macro. so size might be relitive :)

Yeah I posted that pic on here last year when we had a discussion about big teeth. I can't remember who took it though. Either way, that's one snake I hope to never take a hit from! :eek:

Mary, I'm pretty sure that snake is long dead.

Yeah, Im pretty sure he is dead too, his eyes are drying out and there are other characteristics that make him look dead aswell.

was that snake a wc? It looks like it has some sort of mouth rot, and its eyes are kinda sunken in. And look at all the yellow liquid on that bag? anyways, nice pic butnot a nice scrubby :confused:

Yes, it looks extremely dead. And all boas and pythons have many very long teeth. (between 150 and 250) Though the arboreal species tend to be slightly longer proportionately. (I assume to penetrate thick bird feathers and to hold it while it flaps furiously)

I've found size is relitive. I've been tagged by our corns, kings, one of our burmese and one of the viperboas. the viperboa's under a foot (the rest are all longer, and the kings are adults). the bite that hurt the most was the viperboa's with the burm (about 4.5') being second. the kings just tingled and the corns i only noticed because i was looking at them while they bit. I'm not looking forward to the viper boas bite when they're adults
