1. A 33 meter long Borneo snake
Reporting from the Kompas.com article published on (21/2/2009) a photograph of a giant snake was seen swimming in a tropical river surrounded by peat forest.
The black snake is very large, almost filling the river which is located in the middle of lush swamp forest.
Water lapped at the left and right.
Reportedly, the photo was taken from a helicopter, February 11, 2009 ago.
That photo has become a widespread debate in Malaysia today.
Kalimantan does have giant snakes
But all this time, a large snake that has just been discovered is a kind of python or python, or the people of Borneo call it a snake, a dozen meters long.
But the snake seen in photos and circulating widely on the internet, including Youtube, is much longer and bigger than the findings of python so far.
It is estimated to be 100 feet long or around 33 meters.
The picture was taken by a member of the flood disaster area team which was later published by the Sarawak Envoy, a local newspaper, last week.
The New Straits Times in Kuala Lumpur also included the photo which was later released by The Telegraph, England.
There are also those who don't believe the photo and consider it merely engineering.
This is because it is too far to take pictures of the snake.
True or not, the photo has made people around Serawak, especially Sibu, scared.
Because, the river is the lifeblood of public transportation.
Based on the legend that lives in the local community, it is believed that there was an anaconda in the area called Nabau.
According to belief, Nabau is an 80 meter long snake with a dragon head and seven nostrils.
Villagers living on the Borneo Baleh River believe in the mystical creature.
In addition, people often see large snakes in the region.
Well, the question is, if the photo is genuine, does the snake that looks like it's a python or anaconda?
Until now there has been no discovery of anacondas in Kalimantan, except in the best-selling film Anaconda: The Hunt For The Blood Orchid.

2. Anaconda
The longest snake record is indeed anaconda (eunectes) from Amazone.
Anaconda is a boa family. The length of the newly discovered anaconda is 50 feet, but scientists believe there is an anaconda that is 80 feet long, even 100 feet from the findings of the snake skin by a 1992 British scientist expedition.
In the Anaconda family, according to the Mongabay neighborhood site, the biggest is the green anaconda (Eunectes murinus).
Its length reaches 43 meters.
3.Asian Python
Asian Python is the second longest snake.
Scientists call it Asiatic Reticulated Python (Python reticulatus).
The longest python found in the Borneo region is 33 feet long, and is the longest python world record today.
Scientists believe the length of the python can reach 50 feet or about 15 meters.
The difference is, the anaconda is slimmer and expert swimming.
While python is fatter and only likes moisture, not in water.
Anaconda bites its prey to death before swallowing, while python uses its strength by wrapping prey until its bones are destroyed or no longer moving, then swallowed whole.
In early February, scientists discovered fossils of snakes as heavy as a small car.
The snake is thought to be able to crush an animal the size of a cow. A 45-foot monster named Titanoboa is very large and lives by eating giant crocodiles and turtles. It weighs 1.25 tons.
He used to crawl around the tropical forests of South America 60 years ago.

4. Dragon snakes in Borneo
Speaking of giant snakes, Indonesia in 2010 was shocked by the news of the emergence of a pair of giant snakes on the Earth of Borneo or precisely on the Mahakam River.
Quoted from the archive kompas.com, the West Kutai (Kubar) community, especially the residents of Mahakam Ulu, was once beaten by the appearance of a pair of giant snakes the size of a drum or about 60 centimeters in diameter and about 40 meters long.
The giant snake is seen swerving on the surface of the water in Haloam Riam, Long Tuyoq Village, Long Pahangai District.
The giant snake that crossed the river was believed to be the Dayak tribe community as a dragon.
Based on information gathered by the Tribune, the actual occurrence of the dragon's occurrence occurred Friday (29/1/2010).
At that time a longboat departed from Long Bagun towards Long Pahangai.
Longboat arrived at noon in Long Tuyuq village, Riam's halo Haloq.
That's when longboat motorists and passengers saw a pair of giant snakes crossing the Mahakam River from the opposite direction.
As soon as he found out a pair of dragons passed by, the motorist immediately pushed Longboat to the river bank for fear of becoming a victim.
In the Kubar region itself the photo of the giant snake has spread and the people are excited.
According to a resident of Kampung Lutan, Long Hubung District, there are actually two dragons in sight.
One dragon is believed to be a male type because on its head there are two horns and a female dragon because there are no horns.
The two animals have four legs, black skin with a length of about 40 meters and a body diameter of about 60 centimeters.
He added, previously in Long Tuyoq there was even a citizen and his son who were hunting pigs to see the giant snake.
So shocked, the child could not speak until now.
According to local beliefs, the emergence of dragons for the Dayak tribe is a sign, namely notice of heavy rain accompanied by floods that occurred three days after the appearance of a giant snake.
This is more convincing because from Monday (1/2/2010) to Wednesday (02/02/2010), the Mahakam River water overflowed and caused flooding that hit several sub-districts along the Mahakam River, including Long Bagun, Laham, Long Hubung, Long Iram, Tering, Melak, Muara Pahu, Penyinggahan, and Mook Manaar Bulatn.
