Feenix Fire Posted November 14, 2011 #5 Share Posted November 14, 2011 That's either a very large snake or a very small tree. Cool post but no I don't think huge snakes aren't crytids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xCrimsonx Posted November 15, 2011 #7 Share Posted November 15, 2011 At first glance It looks like an Olive python, but It has a pattern like a scrub python, reticulated python maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imaginarynumber1 Posted November 15, 2011 #8 Share Posted November 15, 2011 Cryptids are yet to be discovered, out of place or unexplained animals, so I would suppose that a giant snake would be considered a cryptid. The fellows over at www.cryptomundo.com seem to think so, at least. I can't seem to find it, but I swear they had an article explaining why they classify giant snakes as cryptids. Oh well. Undescribed, unusual, or outsized variations of known species [e.g. the giant anacondas reported from Amazonia or the spotted lions of East Africa]; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptid That would appear to be a large snake, nonetheless, however, the internet doesn't have the best reputation when it comes to giant animals....

Xanthurion2 Posted November 15, 2011 #9 Share Posted November 15, 2011 fake! just kidding. but it doesn't really look that big to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Ford Posted November 15, 2011 #10 Share Posted November 15, 2011 It's not that big. I've seen bigger snakes then that. Plus the tree is probably not that tall. Could only be about 13 foot high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DieChecker Posted November 15, 2011 #11 Share Posted November 15, 2011 (edited) I think it is a combination of big snake and small tree. A quick Google shows that reticulated pythons can get to 9 meters long (30 feet). This one is probably not that long. The snake is about 150-200% length of the height of the tree. unless a lot of it is not seen. In which case if it a 10 foot tree (Not unlikely looking at the leaves of the nearby trees), then this python (?) is probably around 15 to 20 feet long. Big, but not world class.

PersonFromPorlock Posted November 16, 2011 #13 Share Posted November 16, 2011 It's not a true snake anyway, it's a legless giant hyrax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manc_Lad Posted November 19, 2011 #14 Share Posted November 19, 2011 There have been pythons as long as 50 feet caught/spotted in the wild. Nothing out of the ordinary or undiscovered here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how those idiots operate over there. They claim that a big snake is a cryptid and then somehow use that to infer that this bolsters the possibility of things like bigfoot and loch ness exist.
