The huge snake was a carnivore (which means that it would eat meat and kept leaves, stems and crops out of its diet).
- This carnivorous constrictor would also eat other snakes like boa constrictors, cobras, pythons and others!

Do Titanoboa eat people?
At over 40 feet in length and weighing in at over a ton, Titanoboa—recreated by the awesome people at the Smithsonian—would definitely have noshed a few humans. Smithsonian visitors view a scale model of Titanoboa.
What animal eats Titanoboa?
Fish are known to be eaten by snakes, including constrictors like anacondas, and the remains of particularly large lungfish that may have grown to as much as three meters long are known from the Cerrejón Formation.
Did anything prey on Titanoboa?
It may well have been aquatic and hunted similar prey, like crocodiles. Indeed, other fossils from the Cerrejon pit include early relatives of fishes, turtles and crocodiles – all suitable prey for Titanoboa.
How fast can Titanoboa go on land?
Despite its large size, Titanoboa could swim with great speed in the waters. Additionally, on land, Titanoboa was surprisingly a very fast animal, capable of reaching speeds in excess of 50 mph if it ever needed to.
Can Titanoboa come back?
As the Earth's temperatures rise, there's a possibility the Titanoboa - or something like it - could make a comeback. But scientist Dr Carlos Jaramillo points out that it wouldn't happen quickly: "It takes geological time to develop a new species. It could take a million years - but perhaps they will!"
How did the Titanoboa get food?
It was a swamp denizen and a fearsome predator, able to eat any animal that caught its eye. The thickest part of its body would be nearly as high as a man's waist. Scientists call it Titanoboa cerrejonensis.
Do Titanoboa still exist?
Titanoboa was first described in 2009, some five years after it was excavated from rocks exposed at the Cerrejón coal mine in Colombia, which lies to the west of the mouth of Lake Maracaibo. The remains of approximately 30 individuals have been recovered. The majority are adults, but some juveniles have been found.
Can you tame Titanoboa?
Taming. To tame the Titanoboa you have to drop a fertile egg near it, while it is not distracted in any way (it doesn't work if the Titanoboa is aggroed to attacking something, including your character). The Titanoboa will "attack" the egg and eat it, gaining taming progress.
What is a Titanoboa lifespan?
How long does a Titanoboa live? Titanoboa, which was a boa constrictor-like snake, became extinct about 60 million years ago. Therefore, the lifespan of this large animal is unknown.
How did the Titanoboa get so big?
The only thing that would allow us to build a larger snake would be to relax those temperatures and those temperatures would become warmer. So we think that Titanoboa became as large as it did because temperatures were maybe even as much as 10 degrees Fahrenheit warmer than they are today.
Is there a snake bigger than Titanoboa?
History's largest snake simply has no equal among modern snakes. ... That was Gigantophis, a snake that lived 20 million years ago in Africa. The largest snake species today is the giant anaconda, and it can grow to around 15 feet in length — less than one-third of the size of your average Titanoboa.
Is the Titanoboa bulletproof?
Titanoboa are also capable of climbing in trees, oftentimes disguising themselves as large branches. Additionally, as it turns out, Titanoboa also had considerably thick skin, described as "damn near bulletproof". As such, whenever the snake was shot at, it barely flinched.
How did the Titanoboa live?
The Titanoboa spent most of its time in the water. Due to its large size, the Titanoboa spent most of its terrestrial times slithering around trees. The large size would have made it difficult for the Titanoboa to climb trees.
Who is stronger Titanoboa or T Rex?
One bite would severely injure the titanaboa or even kill. T. rex would actually be the most likely to win since they have an explosive bite. (It could LITERALLY explode bone!)
