Fake Snake Pic?

I received this just now in a email thread. The text just says this
"Spotted while driving past the Morganza spillway"
It seems awfully skinny for a snake that long. I say fake...what say the board?

If there was a pothole in that little piece of road it would be more believeable-definately fake!

besides the fact that it looks fake and all that, i drive through morganza a good bit and have been past the spillway many times before and dont really recognize that area. granted i could easily be wrong but yeah... no.

That fricker ate Nessie and killed Bigfoot with one bite.

The longest snakes I have seen in La are what are commonly called chicken snakes and I have seen them as long as eight ft. I have seen plenty of rattlesnakes at six ft. I have heard of king snakes getting six ft or better just not seen them

I found this pic on the Advocate website with many others. Don't know who took it but I hope they get this thing (if it's real) before it takes out some pets in the area!! Frightening and not impossible due to idiots releasing these types of snakes when they cant keep them as pets.

no way that thing is real

I sent this to my friend the herpetologist who lives in Papua New Guinea. I'll let everyone know what he says.

There looks to be sugarcane behind it and I see a pine tree. I am guessing about 10 to 12 ft. maybe a touch less. it is entirely possible that this is a real pic. it could be a non-native or maybe a blue runner. Also it is not hooded up, its head is just up. I would be curious to know what it is. If I saw this on side of road would have to kill it on principle

Spotted a Narwhal yesterday while heading back to New Roads...no big deal I've seen them before but never took the time to snap a pic...thought I'd share since everyone else is sharing their cool animal pics.

My guess is it's a taipan, landscape is definitely close to new south wales in Australia. Having spent a month there it looks like any areas between Sydney and Queensland. And they propel a little defferently than smaller snakes. They roll muscles on their abdomens instead of the characteristic slither we are used to
ETA: Their abdomens, or ground side, are very flat. Their bodies are much more triangular than ovoid
