Hello how may I help you? What is the biggest snake ever caught? I can answer that for you. Do you mean the single biggest snake ever caught, or the biggest type of snake? hmmm single biggest ever caught? It was a garter snake named Bert. It was caught in Austtralia in 1971 and it was 16,000 miles long! wowzers. That is a big  snake. It was 12 miles around! Was Bert released back into the wild or did he get on a plane? He was launched into space, because there wasn't room on Earth. Fly high Bert, Fly high! He's currently coiled around Saturn.
