That's one of those forced perspective shots where the person is holding the critter six feet closer to the camera on the end of a stick.

That snake is not nearly as big as it seems... probably less than 4 feet long.

You can hold a June Bug close to the camera and make it look as big as a football.

Explained here... with photos: kingsnake blog Kingsnake.com Blog - Forced perspective or: Giant Rattlesnake shots
