Titanoboa is an extinct genus of snakes that is known to have lived in present-day La Guajira in northern Colombia. Fossils of Titanoboa have been found in the CerrejΓ³n Formation, and date to around 58 to 60 million years ago. The giant snake lived during the Middle to Late Paleocene epoch,a 10-million-year period immediately following the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event. The only known species is Titanoboa cerrejonensis, the largest snake ever discovered, which supplanted the previous record holder, Gigantophis.
