    37-year-old Anaconda dubbed oldest snake living in captivity

    June 22 (UPI) -- A 37-year-old anaconda at a zoo in South Africa has been officially declared the oldest snake living in captivity by Guinness World Records.

    So is "Declared" by Guinness the same as "Verified" by Guinness?

    Reality or just fudging the numbers?

    Can an Anaconda live this long if it's well taken care of?

    That’s odd because there’s a 62yo ball python living at St Louis zoo…

    Well, it's cool that Guinness made up the category just for "her majesty"! So let's not quibble?
