    A record-breaking python is discovered in the Florida Everglades...

    A record-breaking python is discovered in the Florida Everglades... The astonishing discovery was made when biologists heard a rustle in nearby brush. Yet, perhaps most intriguing was what this creature, the size of a shipping container, last ate before meeting its own demise.

    Deep in the Florida Everglades, a team from the Conservancy of Southwest Florida made a shocking discovery when they came upon a sight they will likely never forget. The biggest Burmese python the team of three had ever laid their eyes on was just mere feet from them.


    Although the snake was captured in December, scientists only announced the discovery this past Tuesday after National Geographic recently published an exclusive article on the python.


    According to the conservancy, this Burmese python broke the invasive species record for the largest ever caught in Florida. The nearly 18-foot python weighed in at a whopping 215 pounds, about the size of a shipping container and shattering the 2016 record of 140 pounds. And that's not the only record for Sunshine State snakes: This female python was also pregnant and was carrying 122 eggs.

    I was wondering where my pet snake disappeared to!
