Giant Burmese python caught in Florida

The biggest Burmese python ever caught in Florida's wild has been captured in the Everglades, US scientists say.
The snake measuring 17ft 7in (5.18m) and weighing 164lb (74kg) was found in Everglades National Park, the University of Florida announced.
The python - now dead - was pregnant with 87 eggs, also believed to be a record.

Non-native Burmese pythons have been blamed for a staggering decline of mammals in Florida's Everglades.
Scientists say the latest discovery shows just how pervasive the snakes - native to South East Asia - have become in South Florida.
