A massive python slithering along the tram road at Shark Valley in Everglades National Park may be one for the record books.
Nabbed by University of Florida researchers studying invasive species in the park earlier this month, the female measured 18 feet, three inches and weighed 133 pounds. That’s three inches shy of the record-holder — beheaded by a man riding an ATV in Florida City in 2013 — but five pounds heavier than previous snakes captured in the Florida wild.
