==On longevity==

According to Guinness World Records the oldest snake was a [http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/content_pages/record.asp?recordid=51003 40 year-old Red-tailed Boa ''(Boa constrictor)''], so the age of 48 would make this species the World's longest-lived snake. I did some searches, and found out about a Ball Python that died at the reported age of 49 years 4 months in Philadelphia Zoo (the same zoo as the Guinness approved boa!). But I found no more details, such as date of death, or if this snake was named. Another source gave this species a maximum age of 28 years in captivity. Clearly this calls for further research. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/80.221.220.31|80.221.220.31]] ([[User talk:80.221.220.31|talk]]) 23:28, 14 March 2006 (UTC)</small>
