We believethat a realistic size limit for this species has taken on greaterimportance since Burmese pythons are no longer considered tobe a subspecies of the Indian python, Python molurus, and arenow recognized as a species, Python bivittatus (Jacobs et al.,2009; Schleip and OâShea, 2010).he historyof Colossus is perhaps the best example of the discrepancybetween purported size and actual measured size. Colossus The reticulated python known as Colossus arrived at theHighland Park Zoo [now known as the Pittsburgh Zoo & PPGAquarium] in August 1949 and remained there on exhibit untildeath in April 1963.
The Braford was created to provide a consistent and efficient product for beef production. The breed was made by a cross between a Hereford bull and a Brahman cow. They carry the characteristics of both breeds. This was first done by Partin and Hudgins breeding, Alto Adams Jr. in Florida, 1947.
Brangus is an interesting type of beef cattle that has developed from the Angus and Brahman breeds. Most guidelines say that they should be about 37.5% Brahman and 62.5% Angus! Brangus cattle were bred to combine the excellent beef quality of Angus with something a little hardier, like the Brahman. Their distinctive look comes from their fairly large ears, loose and folded skin, quite a pronounced hump on bulls' backs and a rounded rump.
