They are one of the, if not the longest lived snakes because of the way they self regulate their food intake.

Yep. To the best of my knowledge, the longest recorded lifespan of any known snake species was royal python that lived at Philadelphia Zoo for 47yrs and was a young adult when they got it. The Barkers also mention a couple of ancient royals in their most recent “pythons of the world” book when discussing python longevity. The couple they refer to are I think 50+ yrs old and still alive at the time of publication. Can verify that when I’m back home later.
