Flo loves giant prehistoric animals, so those of you who romance him (he appears to be quite popular) will have a steady supply of cool Titanoboa/short-faced bear/Megalodon facts.
Here's a very interesting documentary about Titanoboa:
I... I thought you might want to watch it. It's really good.

Speculative biology question. What do you think would happen if titanoboa suddenly came back?
A lot of people would be very confused, I imagine.
Really, though, it probably wouldn't do very well. Being a giant snake isn't easy! Titanoboa needed to eat large prey that just doesn't exist today, like huge fish and giant crocodiles. Without large prey items, it would waste a lot of energy chasing after smaller food more often. The climate is also different - in Titanoboa's time, the world was around 10 degrees F warmer on average. The world has simply changed too much to accomodate Titanoboa anymore.

You may not want to read about this frightening creature if you suffer to any degree from ophidiophobia, or even if you are about to embark on a camping trip.

Day 3 of Tier 3!
Rhamphorhynchus was named in 1825 by Georg Graf zu Münster. Not long after, a speciman was found with its soft tissue wing membranes in tact.
Titanboa was found in 2002 in Columbia. It was only a handful of vertebrae. It would take several more years to find other bones including a skull.

FEBUZOIC DAY 2
Colombia - Selandian Stage, 60Ma before present
It has been 6 million years since the asteroid impact that brought the Mesozoic era to an end, and the world has recovered. Lush green forests cover the wet of the Earth once more, no longer strangled by clouds of ash, and the seasons pass by in their normal state. It has, however, been getting considerably hotter during this time, and this has shaped the emerging world of the Cenozoic. A new biome has come to dominate the inflated tropical regions of the equator; tropical broadleaf rainforest, an ecosystem type synonymous with this climate today.
It is not just the flora that has been shaped by this heating world, but the fauna. Cold-blooded reptiles have done exceptionally well post-extinction, with their slowed metabolisms, which had increased their chance of survival during the cold, harsh decades after the impact, now speeding up in the heat, allowing them to dominate the megafaunal roles of the Palaeocene world.
Winding his way through the waters of the Cerrajon wetlands is one of the largest Palaeocene reptiles: Titanoboa. Although this giant snake is mainly piscivorous, other local animals give him a wide berth as his size and the potential crushing power of his coils prove no match for other predator in his environment.

Prehistoric Phantoms
Made this in part of an upcoming Maryanna piece, but I feel like giving it its own release would be cash money of me. What do the ghosts of long-extinct megafauna have to do with a certain Sassy Moon Vamp? You'll just have to wait and see...

idk if this is a silly question but i don't think i've ever seen it discussed before
do you have any estimates about how big titanaboa eggs would have been? based on the size of eggs from living boa species, i can only imagine they would have been sizable, but do have any thoughts?
It's a very safe bet that Titanoboa would not have laid eggs at all! The vast majority of boas are live-bearers; sand boas (Eryx sp.) are the only oviparous boas I can think of off the top of my head. Boas are live-bearers as a rule, and it's so universal that it probably goes pretty far back in the boa family tree.
As for what size babies a 40-foot snake would have...to guesstimate, anacondas, which Titanoboa seems similar to, average 15 feet long and have babies that are around 2 feet long. I'd throw my hat in the ring and say baby Titanoboas would probably be around 4 feet long - any bigger seems unlikely for the parent snake to be able to carry easily.
