I'm actually petrified of snakes, but still watching this documentary. Utterly terrifying 🫤

Would you sit next to a sedated anaconda for 5 minutes for 5 million dollars?

[@deepikarao4547]

Me too lol 😅😂

[@user-yo1jl8ue2s]

I am too I When i see 1 or 2 they send shivers up my spine abd i go into fight or flight mode I think that's why I educate myself on them!

Snakes are not mindless killers that love to target humans, they run from us if they can. It is us who are the monsters that target and kill them.

[@pamelataratinow3473]

I have always been terrified of snakes, small and large and have had many close encounters while living in Guyana. However, I decided to watch this documentary to learn about how researchers & scientists go about looking for these reptiles. I feel scared for them because the waters in Guyana have many dangerous species below and on land. For example, the electric eel, these kill many divers and can live in fairly shallow waters. There are also the piranhas, besides the caimans, black caimans, monster snakes, poisonous vipers, there are many trees and flowers that secrete toxins. Knowledge is power and once again, thank you for this educational documentary. This is what should be shared in schools. It is great that the indigenous peoples know how to be safe. I would like to do something to help protect them and wish that there were more funding for these people who are brave and relentless on their projects. 🥰

[@antoniotula262]

I only learned a few years ago just how large Guyana really is. It seems only a very small part (Georgetown, Berbice, etc.) is developed. Most looks like jungle "savanna."

[@erichoesein6749]

Plantage vriendsbeleid has a anaconda, that is longer than 12 meters.

[@pamelataratinow3473]

@@antoniotula262 You are right, mostly marsh lands, jungles etc. England can easily fit into Guyana. It costs money to develop areas that can benefit the peoples living in those regions so I am happy to learn that some exposure is given to the land, animals and people. With Eco-tourism, hopefully it can further develop more areas.

Everybody says that Anacondas are the biggest snake on earth, but the official world record for both heaviest and longest is held by Pythons. No idea why this is so!

[@KylieFickell]

Pretty sure that’s because the largest python was in captivity just from what I have read

[@debajyotinath5021]

@@KylieFickell then why Anacondas in captivity don't get bigger? Both Pythons and Anacondas have been bred and taken care of in captivity.

[@steve0ization]

Is that length or weight based ?

[@samuraininjarockstar9355]

A 20 foot anaconda weighs nearly double a 20 foot reticulated python , there have been 26 foot anacondas found in Brazil, Guayana & Surinam , there have been 30 foot Reticulated pythons but the bulk of the anaconda blows away the python ….
