>dangerously high levels of mercury

All the better for a tuna substitute!

More seriously, from your article

>4.86 mg/kg in liver tissue from a snake that was 4.7 m long but overall averaged 0.12 ± 0.19 mg/kg in tail tip

Tuna looks like it's about 0.39 mg/kg, so the liver tissue is suuuuper high but the tail tip is just normal high mercury.

Eating predator livers is a bad idea in any case.

    Tuna are also predators. And high in mercury. Not a co-incidence.

      Nearly all fish are. And, come to think of it, no one seems to like eating any fish liver.

        Ankimo, monkfish liver at sushi places, is great but I suggest you get it from someone who knows how to prepare it otherwise it can be off putting.
