🐍 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.
