That's what I want to know, too. I mean if -I- saw a giant snake thing on tv like that my first thought would be 'wow, where'd they get that big a snake?' because I grew up in South Florida and big reptiles were part of everyday life, and I'd simultaneously want to pet it and stay very far away. But yeah, there's gonna be a lot more speculation on the internet and cryptids (at least some) might have to be outed sooner than expected.
