What we did think on this subject, was barely covered #deathcult worship... thus the mess we are in now.

About 60 million years ago, a gigantic snake called Titanoboa slithered through the swamps of Colombia, killing its prey by constriction.
Titanoboa was massive, estimated to grow up to 50 ft (>15 m) long, over 2,000 lbs (>900 kg) & 3 ft (~1 m) wide. It could have easily devoured animals as large as alligators. floridamuseum.ufl.edu/100years… Image: Smithsonian Channel
