• The reticulated python is the longest extant snake. The silhouette is scaled to 6.95 metres (22.8 ft) which is the length of a reliably measured wild reticulated python. [6] A captive reticulated python named "Medusa" is reported to measure 7.67 metres (25.2 ft). [7] There are reports of ~10 metres (33 ft) specimens but these are questionable.
