Meet the Mighty Green Anaconda!🐍 This semiaquatic snake, found in tropical South America, holds the title of largest snake in the world when it comes to weight and length! The anaconda can grow up to 9 meters long (that’s longer than six kids lying head-to-foot!) and weigh as much as 227 kg – heavier than all of them combined! Belonging to the constrictor family, these snakes don’t use venom to hunt; instead, they wrap their bodies around prey and squeeze until it can’t breathe. Once the job’s done, it’s snack time! Thanks to stretchy ligaments, they can open their mouths wide enough to swallow prey whole – from fish to caimans, even wild pigs, and sometimes jaguars! #wildlife #anaconda #brazil #terramater #terramatters #pantanal
