Giant Snake Of The Amazon.
No animal in the Amazon is more feared and more respected than the 'spirit of the river' - The Anaconda.It haunts swamps and shallow streams where it remains virtually invisible even to the trained eye.It is the world's largest and most powerful snake and when its massive coils loop around its prey, few escape.Death comes from total circulatory collapse within seconds.Fully grown, it can approach a length of thirty feet and weigh close to a quarter of a ton.Physically, no animal in the new world can match its strength.More at home in the water than on land, the Anaconda stands alone at the top of the hierarchy of predators in the Amazon.
