Titanoboa, the Titanic Boa

(image source: https://dinopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Titanoboa)

Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Natasha Krech discuss Titanoboa, the snake with a really uncreative name that weighed as much as a car. From the Paleocene epoch, this 42-foot constrictor just missed out on dinosaurs, so all that fan art you've seen of it crushing a T. rex or whatever was total nonsense. It's a cool image though, so who cares really? Oh yeah, paleontologists.
