The largest Burmese python ever seen in Florida has been captured in the Everglades, according to National Geographic.

Florida researchers found the nearly 18-foot long, 215 pound female python, the largest ever found outside its native habitat.

Pythons are not native to Florida and usually grow between 6 and 10 feet but in Southeast Asia they commonly reach 18 to 20 feet long.

After euthanizing the female snake, researchers found bits of fur, clumps of dissolved bone and a chunk of a hoof, evidence that the python's last meal was an adult white-tailed deer.
