Workers of a construction company have captured a very huge snake believed to be the longest snake in the world . the reticulated python which is measures about 8 meters long and weighs up to 250 kg was found curled up in a construction site by workers of a construction company in Malaysia.
Workers on the site on seeing the snake went ahead to alert the civil defence who then captured the snake, this process however did not come all that easy as it took the
civil defence well over 30 minutes to capture the snake.
According to the Guinness book of the record the current record holder for the longest snake ever captured still remains the Medusa reticulated Python which stretches up to 7.3 m in length and could be found in Missouri in the united states.
The snake which is currently in the custody of the civil defense would subsequently be handed over to the state wild life department for safe keeping, as it is believed that there could still be longer snakes out there in the wild.
Reticulated pythons are know to be one of the longest snakes in the world , the species of snake are usually found in south east Asia , they naturally feed on mammals an birds and to some rear occasions humans.
