"Gigantic Prehistoric Snake Unearthed in India: A Record-Breaking Discovery"

Researchers in India have discovered the fossilized remains of a giant extinct snake, named Vasuki indicus, which measured up to 50 feet long and is believed to be the largest madtsoiid snake ever recorded. The specimen, dating back 47 million years, had a broad, cylindrical body and likely weighed up to 2,200 pounds. It was identified as an ambush predator that constricted its prey, similar to a python, and is from the Indian subcontinent, existing approximately 56 to 34 million years ago.
