on the planet, measured either by length or by weight, are different individuals from the boidae and pythonidae families. They incorporate boa constrictors, pythons, and boa constrictors, which are all non-venomous constrictors. The longest venomous snake, with a length up to 18.5–18.8 ft (5.6–5.7 m), is the ruler cobra, and the heaviest venomous snake is prone to be the Gaboon snake (which additionally has the longest teeth and conveys the biggest measure of venom) or perhaps the Eastern diamondback rattler – every one of the three of which achieve most extreme weights in the scope of 6–20 kilograms
There are ten living snakes, recorded beneath as per their greatest known or reported mass, that have a most extreme mass that may reach or surpass 50 pounds (23 kg). Pending the acknowledgment of its taxonomic status, the Bolivian boa constrictor (Eunectes beniensis) may likewise justify incorporation, and the northern and southern varieties of African shake python could be considered independently.
As far as length, notwithstanding those recorded here, there are two different species that may conceivably achieve a length of 20 feet (6.1 m) or more – the Oenpelli python (Morelia oenpelliensis) and the olive python (Liasis olivaceus) – be that as it may, the data accessible about those species is somewhat limited.The Oenpelli python, specifically, has been known as the rarest python in the world.
It is vital to know that there is impressive variety in the greatest reported size of these species, and most estimations are not really evident, so the sizes recorded ought not be viewed as authoritative. When all is said in done, the reported lengths are liable to be fairly overestimated. regardless of what has been, for a long time, a standing offer of an expansive money related compensate (at first $1,000 offered by U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt in the mid 1900s,later raised to $5,000, then $15,000 in 1978 and $50,000 in 1980) for a live, solid snake more than 30 ft (9.1 m) long by the New York Zoological Society (later renamed as the Wildlife Conservation Society), no endeavor to guarantee the remunerate has ever been made.
In spite of the fact that it is by and large acknowledged that the reticulated python is the world's longest living snake, most length gauges longer than 6.35 m (20 ft 10 in) have been called into question.It has been proposed that certain length records for the biggest snakes should be set up from a dead body not long after death, or then again from an intensely calmed wind, utilizing a steel tape and as a part of the nearness of witnesses, and should be distributed (and ideally recorded on video). At slightest one reticulated python was measured under full anesthesia at 6.95 m (22 ft 10 in), and fairly less dependable experimental reports up to 10 m (33 ft) have showed up.
