    Big Retic Gets a CAT Scan

    i thought this was a cool vid. Hanna, who i suspect was named after Jack Hanna, was given a CAT Scan recently to determine the cause of an illness. she looks like a Tiger Retic? anyway she's a big girl - 6meters and 63kilos and i counted 7 adults carrying her into the machine.

    vid here: https://www.msn.com/en-us/video/down...can/vp-BBKzmoi

    hope she feels better soon!




    Edit: ok just found the article:



    A HISSTORIC first... Hanna the 19 foot 135 pound python doubles up to receive pioneering CAT scan for her lung problems

    A python weighing a whopping ten stone has undergone a pioneering CAT scan for her lung problems.

    Hanna the snake - who is nearly 19 feet long - had to be folded up to fit in the machine at Columbus Zoo and Aquarium in Ohio.

    She underwent the scan after suffering respiratory problems.

    Zoo staff used the groundbreaking technology after noting she had swelling on her face.

    That is one looonngg snake. Interesting to watch, wish they told us the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.
