World Record Python

This was a picture I got out of the newspaper. It claimed the snake was a world record and the largest snake ever captured and held in captivity. Unfortunately I lost the clipping with the text that came with it. When I get around to cleaning my office, I'll scan the text in and add it to the picture.

I am not sure where the picture below came from. I do not know if it's the same snake but the pictures came out around the same time.
