The anaconda is the biggest snake in the world. Also known as the Water Boa, this giant, meat-eater lives in swampy areas of tropical (warm) South America. It spends a lot of time in shallow water, hidden from unsuspecting prey. Anacondas are related to boa constrictors. They give birth to live young; 20 to 40 baby snakes are born at one time. Anatomy : Like all snakes, anacondas are cold-blooded; they are the same temperature as the environment. They continue to grow all their lives, getting bigger and bigger each year. The longest anaconda ever found was 37.5 feet (11.4 m) long, there are probably even bigger anacondas that have not been seen. Anacondas are greenish-brown with a double row of black oval spots on the back and smaller white markings on the sides. Their scaly skin glistens but is dry is to the touch. The nostrils are on top of the snout, letting the snake breathe easily when it is in the water. It smells with its tongue. It has no fangs. Hunting and Diet : Anacondas are carnivores (meat-eaters). They mostly hunt at night (they are nocturnal). Anacondas kill by constricting (squeezing) the prey until it can no longer breathe. Sometimes they drown the prey. Like all snakes, they swallow the prey whole, head first. The anaconda's top and bottom jaws are attached to each other with stretchy ligaments, which let the snake swallow animals wider than itself. Snakes don't chew their food, they digest it with very strong acids in the snake's stomach. Anacondas eat pigs

The green anaconda to be specific, the largest snake in the world. Other snakes may grow longer, but none matches the length and weight of the anaconda. The largest specimens can grow to close to 30 feet (9 meters) long and weigh 1,200 pounds (550 kilograms). "The anaconda is the master of the swamp," says Rivas. "Before 1992, no one knew anything about it, and you can't really know anything about an animal by building computer models in the lab. You have to put on the shoes of the snake and wear them. That way you learn the difference between the truth and what you think the truth is." Rivas started the Anaconda Project in 1992. For ten years, Rivas and a revolving group of graduate students and volunteers have captured and released about 800 green anacondas. As a result, some of the giant snake's story can now be told.

Anaconda The movie version of this largest of all snakes is awesome and terrifying! Viewers will attest that this frightening screen action confirms their worst nightmares about killer snakes. On this web site, we would like to share some direct information about the real snake. Still quite impressive as predators go and quite potentially capable of taking a full grown adult homosapiens for breakfast! The Anaconda is in the boa family and the largest is the Eunectes murin us. Like most snakes it has suffered greatly from much exaggeration and scary folklore. It seems that the longest specimen on record is a 9+ meter snake at a little over 37 feet in strong squeezing length. Travelers' diaries and notes often refer to 40 foot individuals and references to foot monsters have actually been made, but likely never confirmed. The name seems to be derived from the South American Indian word combinations referencing

Eunectes murinus
The Green Anaconda, also known as the water boa. There is also the yellow Anaconda, Eunectes notaeus.

The name "Anaconda" comes from the Sri Lankan language, Sinhalese, which originally probably referred to the Reticulated python. No one is sure how this name came to represent a South American snake, unless these two snakes, Anaconda and Python, were mistaken as the same species. Both snakes are swimmers and two of the largest snakes in the world. The Tamil word for Anaconda is "Anaikolra" which means "elephant killer". The early Spanish settlers referred to this snake as "Matatoro" or "bull killer". Classification:

- Chordata
Class - Reptilia
Order - Squamata
Family - Boidae

Physical Characteristics
The Anaconda is considered the biggest snake in the world. These snakes may reach lengths of over 29 feet. There are many exaggerated stories about anacondas being much longer, but they cannot be confirmed.
The Anaconda is the heaviest snake, but it may or may not be the longest.The Reticulated python rivals the Anaconda for the longest snake. A 20-foot Anaconda will weigh more than a 33-foot python. The Anaconda can weigh 550 pounds or more, but will usually top out at a few hundred pounds. These snakes can measure more than 12 inches in diameter. The female typically outweighs the males.

About this snake: Green Anaconda
The Green Anaconda is found throughout tropical South America, east of the Andes, mainly in the Amazon and Orinoco basins and in the Guiana. Females are larger growing and may exceed lengths of 16' in captivity; males are smaller growing and are rarely over 11'. Females typically mature in 3 years and breed at lengths of 9', males may mature at 18 months if fed well and may begin breeding activity as they approach 6'. Their mating period usually is from April to May. Green Anacondas reproduce sexually and have internal fertilization like all snakes. Courtship can last over several months.

About this snake: Anaconda
The mating period for anacondas usually lasts from April to May. The anaconda, like all snakes, reproduces sexually and has internal fertilization. The female is usually inactive during mating season and does not move around, but waits for the males to seek her out. Although this does not seem necessary for breeding to take place, there are usually 2 to 12 males curled around one female. This is known as a breeding ball. Once in this position the snakes will stay for up to 2 to 4 weeks with the males wrestling for the privilege of mating with the female. The young are born live, usually in litters of 20 to 40, however it is possible for the litter to be as large as 100. The babies are about 2 feet long and will often refuse food for the first several months after birth.

Large constrictors snakes are potentially dangerous to people due to their size and strength (Branch and Haacke 1980). However, there are no documented attacks by green anacondas ( Eunectes murinus ) on humans. The lack of documentation may be due to low human population in areas where anacondas are common, and to the nature of their behavior and the habitat where they live. In this note I document predatory strikes by green anacondas on two of my field assistants while conducting field research on green anaconda in the Venezuelan llanos. Eleocharis sp, Cyperacea) The other event was on another of my helpers (male, 1.74m 57 kg) while we were looking for snakes in a river covered by aquatic hyacinth ( Eichhornia ssp). After we walked by the snake without detecting it, the snake followed my helper, tongue flicking at him for approximately 2.5 m, raising itself up to 25 cm above the aquatic vegetation. The snake was seen and filmed by a photographer behind us who warned us about the snake. I managed to grab the snake by mid-body just as it struck to my helper who in turn jumped backwards. Both, me pulling the snake backwards and he moving out of reach made the snake fail and snap into the air ( Figure 1a to 1f , extracted from the tape). Upon catching and subduing the animal (Pen), She measured 445 cm in total length and 39 kg in weight. The overall appearance of the snake was healthy but very thin.

The anaconda snake is from the family of reptiles. The anaconda's scientific name is Eunectes murinus . Like all reptiles, it is cold-blooded. Snakes like the anaconda breathe oxygen from the air. The anaconda lives in the water and on land. It can hold its breath under water for about ten minutes. Some snakes that are related to the anaconda are the boa constrictor, python, and king snake. Description
The anaconda is hard to see because it likes to hide under bushes. Its color is green with big black spots. There is a yellow anaconda too, also with black spots. Its head is narrow with a fat body. Like all reptiles, it is covered with scales. The length of anacondas can often reach 29 feet. It can weigh 300 to 500 pounds. Female anacondas give birth to 20 to 40 babies at one time. The babies are born live, while most snakes are hatched from eggs. They can live for 30 years. Habitat
The anaconda lives in the jungle in South America, in the Guianas, east of the Andes Mountains, and mainly in the Amazon and Orinoco River regions. They like the wet, dense tropical vegetation. They do well in warm, dark, freshwater swamps. They also like to rest in the sun.

Generally, Green Anacondas are vicious and are difficult to keep as pets. The male and female I received from my contact are tame, which is highly unusual. They are now feeding on anything from large rabbits to young goats.

Species: Eunectus murinus Habitat:
Anaconda's are seldom found far from water and inhabit a very large variety of aquatic environments including rivers, large and small streams, lakes, ponds, swamps, ditches, temporary pools, and flooded forests. In addition, they can be found in areas, such as, dry forests, and the llanos (a seasonally inundated tropical savannah) primarily because of the abundance of surface water in these areas for six to eight months during the wet season (Strimple 1993). Bacon (1978) reported that Trinidad anacondas have adapted to human modified environments, and it has become common in abandoned gravel pits that are rich in waterfowl, frogs, and fish. Anacondas are also found in sheltered waterways close to settlements in the country where poultry is reared (Quelch 1898). Natural History: Opinions on the size attained by anacondas have been offered by many herpetologists and zoologists, some of whom actually had field experience and personally measured them. They range in size from 10.5 feet to about twenty five feet (Murphy 1997). The issue of how large snakes get, has been clouded by authors suggesting that the supersnakes (snakes reported to be in the 50 to 100 foot range) are species not currently known to science, but instead represent undiscovered species (Murphy 1997). Perry (1970) devoted an entire chapter to

Anaconda
Anaconda
Anacondas are three species of aquatic boa inhabiting the swamps and rivers of the dense forests of tropical South America The Eunectes murinus (formerly called Boa murina) differs from Boa by the snout being covered with shields instead of small scales, the inner of the three nasal shields being in contact with that of the other side. The general colour is dark olive-brown, with large oval black spots arranged in two alternating rows along the back, and with smaller white-eyed spots along the sides. The belly is whitish, spotted with black. The anaconda combines an arboreal with an aquatic life, and feeds chiefly upon birds and mammals, mostly during the night. It lies submerged in the water, with only a small part of its head above the surface, waiting for any suitable prey, or it establishes itself upon the branches of a tree which overhangs the water or the track of game. Like almost all boas, anacondas give birth to live young. Anacondas have a reputation for bad temperament; that plus the massive size of the green species mean that anacondas are comparatively less popular as pets than other boas.

The Anaconda
The giant anaconda provokes both wonder and fear, yet almost no scientific studies have been done on these magnificent serpents............`till now. Thanks to the efforts of a team of American and Venezuelan biologists, the stories of monstrous man-eating horned snakes that breathe poisonous gas, will soon be no more. Dr. Robert Henderson who is curator of herpetology at the Milwaukee Public Museum, Dr. John Thorbjarnarson, a conservation biologist at the Wildlife Conservation Society in New York, Jesus Rivas, an ecologist at the University of Tennessee, Bill Holmstrom, and Maria Munoz make up this team of biologists. The following is what they have learned thus far. The species, known as Eunectes murinus, ranges throughout South America's Orinoco and Amazon river basins. Dr. Thorbjarnarson and his team chose to study the snakes here in the Venezuelan savannas, known as the llanos, at a ranch called Hato El Cadral. A working cattle ranch, El Cedral is also preserve rich enough in wildlife to attract a healthy ecotourism trade, particularly in the dry season. Its extensive savannas, navigable only by boat in the rainy season, turn in dry weather into a patchwork of isolated pools, where more than 500 snakes have been found and marked since the project began in 1992. In tracking these snakes, the biologists have gotten a first peek into the love life of anacondas. When it comes to anaconda sex, they have found, the more the merrier. In the breeding season, which has now begun in the llanos, a single female can be found entwined with as many as 12 much smaller males in a heaping mass known as a mating ball. Researchers say the females appear to hang out in a pool of water, draped in and visited by as many as 17 consorts for as long as four to six weeks.

"When you can't breathe, you can't scream." That may be true, but when speaking in terms of the new thriller Anaconda , a more fitting tagline would be "When you're laughing your ass off, you can't scream," for this inane jungle adventure is nothing less than Congo '97 This adventure, directed by Luis Llosa of The Specialist and Sniper fame (or infamy, depending on how you look at it), follows a film crew traveling down the Amazon to make a documentary on a mysterious tribe. The crew is a bunch of flat characters, each with only one discernible personality trait: there's the earnest young director (Jennifer Lopez, the only actor on board who emerges with her dignity intact); the cameraman from the 'hood (Ice Cube); the horny sound guy (Owen Wilson); the bimbo production manager (Kari Wuhrer); the stuffy British host (Jonathan Hyde); the professor/love interest to the director (Eric Stoltz, wasted); and the foreign-accented captain of the boat (Vincent Castellanos). When they stumble upon a mysterious stranger (Jon Voight) in a broken down boat, the crew decides to take him on board. Big mistake. He's no liea psychotic former-priest-turned-snake-hunter from Paraguay, dangerously obsessed with capturing the 40-foot anaconda snake aliveeven if it means sacrificing the film crew.

Pros
Predictable fun with scientist that insists his discovery comes first. Cons Low budget,but well made anyways. The Bottom Line Go in knowing what to expect and you won't be disappointed. Full Review Plot Details: This opinion reveals major details about the movie''s plot. In 1997, Columbia released their first foray into the world of giant snakes with the film ANACONDA. It featured up and coming actress Jennifer Lopez, hot rap artist turned actor Ice Cube and thespian Jon Voight. The movie did fair business and led to a series of big snake films that have been released straight to video and on to the Sci Fi Channel. It was only a matter of time before a sequel was hatched. The thing is, the movie is actually pretty good. Not in an Oscar category perhaps, but as one of the low budget horror fare that have been coming out since the days of the drive in, it does a great job at providing just what those going to see it expect. Good special effects, a decent story and a few thrills here and there.
