Snakes are some of the most peculiar reptiles on Earth. They slither their way around the world on land and their dominion extends even in lakes, rivers and oceans. Snakes evolved from aquatic and burrowing lizards and today there are over 2900 species of them around the world. So, let us see among all these species, which one qualifies to be the biggest snake in the world.The biggest snake in the world by length, that is, the longest snake is the ‘Reticulated Python’ or Python Reticulatus found in South East Asia. Growing up to an average length of over 28 feet (that is 8.7 meters), this is the longest species of snake in the world. These snakes belong to the family of pythons, which are all non-venomous giant snakes, who kill their prey by constriction. They also happen to be the longest living reptiles on Earth. Their name ‘Reticulated’ or ‘Net Like’ comes from the net like patterns on their bodies.

Top 5 Most Dangerous Countries in the World
October 5th, 2009Drugs, murders, human trafficking, and terrorism are all indicators of violence in our world, with its presence more heavily noted in some countries than others. People live in fear and delinquents do not value human life where crime is prevalent, and a common element of their daily lives. Forthcoming is a list enumerating the most dangerous countries (not at war) on our planet and the reasons behind it, in correlation with statistics on NationMaster.com. You wouldn’t want to be caught dead living there, literally.
Top 5 dangerous countries in the world. Fancy travelling to these countries after reading what is being done by the minute.
1-Russia,
2-Venezuela,
3-Jamaica,
4-South Africa and
5-Columbia.
All have one claim to fame, and that would be danger. I do remember say, a couple of years ago, I’d always entertained thoughts of perhaps, paying South Africa a visit. Little is known about this little country greatly ravaged by history’s little misdemeanour, the practice of apartheid. Reading about the dangers that country presents, jolted me upright!
South Africa : Averages 50 murders a day in a country of 47 million.
Figures like this speaks volumes on the atrocities that continues to go on today.
However, what I found puzzling was how little was being said about countries like Afghanistan, or perhaps, Iraq and even to a certain extent, Pakistan and etc. I can conclude quite rhetorically that reports like these aren’t conclusive without the inclusion of other countries, thought to be even more dangerous that the aforementioned places.
