I wonder how sure they are that the hatched dinosaur was a plant eater. Maybe it was a baby t-rex or raptor, and the snake was killed or disabled by momma, and left for the baby’s first meal.

Wonder why they are so sure that the snake supposedly waiting to devour the newly hatched babies wasn’t actually already dead, a gift from Mommy to her sure-to-be hungry babies? I had a female cat that used to bring our family food offerings, including the occasional snake.

11 feet is not so big. My Yellow Anaconda will get to be 10 and he is a smaller cousin to the Green.

That too is a great possibility. Who can say? In either case, it is quite a find.

Well, yeah. I was thinking that in the Dinosaur Age 11 ft. is rather hum-drum. An 11-footer could have been swallowed up by pre-historic birds.
A guy down the street from me when I was a kid had an 18 ft. anaconda (late 60s). My attempt at humor just fell flat I guess.
