Un ancien serpent de 50 pieds découvert en Inde pourrait être l'un des plus grands jamais vus
vertèbre Inde découverte
Un énorme serpent préhistorique découvert en Inde pourrait figurer parmi les plus grands serpents jamais rampés sur Terre. Nommé Vasuki indicus, cet ancien géant vivait il y a environ 47 millions d'années et on estime qu'il s'étendait sur une longueur étonnante de 11 à 15 mètres, rivalisant avec le légendaire Titanoboa. Des vertèbres fossilisées découvertes dans une mine de lignite du Gujarat révèlent un serpent au corps épais et puissant, probablement construit pour des embuscades lentes et furtives, semblable aux anacondas modernes.
