Diet: Medium sized mammals and waterfowl.
Habitat: Coastal Southeast Asia usually near fresh water.

Comments: Often albino retics have a little bit of a lavender colored tinge to their white parts, which creates an interesting dynamic. She is about 10 feet long (sub-adult). The Guinness Book record for longest snake, however, is a 24 foot retic. Although they are the longest snake in the world, they are by far not the heaviest bodied.
