    I never concluded that Nagini was the same snake as the one in the first book. I recognized Nagini as a retic in the last movies, but at our house she is a spider ball python female.

    I take most of those internet quotes from her with a grain of salt.

    Also lets remember that Nagini is obviously a snake of magical properties, like Hedwig and Crookshanks (even though he is half-Kneazle). Because Nagini was capable of being a horcrux, then she may have had other magical properties bestowed on her. Maybe the venom is from He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named's horcrux (soul fragment). I could see how they could be venomous.

    I remember noticing three different species of snake used on three Harry Potter posters for the same movie. I wouldn't call myself a Harry Potter fan so I just assumed that Voldemort had like three snakes or something. Silly me.

    A friend of mine posted that thing about nagini on facebook yesterday and I couldn't help but correct him. Obviously the movie creators did not have that in mind while making these movies, false claims on Rowling's part.

    If it says it was a boa in the book that really just ads insult to injury. They came so close do doing a great job with it in the movie, yet are still so far away.

    I think it's all just rumor. If I remember correctly the snake in the zoo was male too and Nagini is supposed to be female. There is no way they could have been the same snake. :rolleyes:

    "Not much is known about Nagini's early life or when she was acquired by Voldemort. It is unknown whether Voldemort owned Nagini before his fall in 1981, or if he found her during his exile in Albania."

    That's quoted out of the second link, so I think that pretty much says the zoo snake isn't Nagini. Plus, as was already said, she had to have been a horcrux before going after the Potter's since Harry was the "real" last one. (Not a HP fan, just a good memory lol)

    Harry Potter is specifically said to be able to talk to snakes. Therefore, the snake in the zoo was probably just a snake that Harry could communicate with. I believe that scene shows how Harry is first introduced to be able to communicate with snakes, which also ties in with the story in later movies.

    Now looking back on this I do believe it is just a rumor.
