I do not believe that cause of death for one second! Probably became life extinct due to mishandling, over handling, uneducated handling, too many selfies handling and did I say, handling? I've read way too many books on taxedermy and trophy poaching to simply believe this serpent passed away due to complications with laying an egg. Price of live 8 metre python? High. Price of stuffed or preserved skin of 8 metre python hanging over someone's pool table? EGOTISTICALLY PRICELESS!
