🐍 Exceptionally Large African Python Found

Herpetologists on a certified field expedition in northern Mozambique discovered an exceptionally large African rock python — measuring about 6.5 metres long, well above typical sizes for the species.

• Species: African rock python — Africa’s largest snake species.

• Size: ~6.5 m length observed — a rare giant in the wild.

• Habitat: Riverine forest and seasonal stream edges in Mozambique.

• Field researchers used careful measuring techniques and documentation to verify its exceptional size.

Such a large individual suggests intact prey populations and relatively undisturbed habitat — indicators of ecosystem health in that region.
