1. ANACONDAS
The deadly giant....

2. INTRODUCTION...
The anaconda is
a large, aquatic
water snake of
giant sizes. They
are non-
venomous
snakes. They are
the biggest
snake known on

3. ORIGIN...
The name Anaconda is supposedly originated from the Tamil word meaning ‘elephant killer’,
which was originally used for pythons located in Sri Lanka. Local names for the Anaconda include
a Spanish word “Matatoro”, which means “Bull Killer”; and the Native Americans terms for the
Anaconda are Sucuri, Yakumama and Jiboia. Anacondas are also referred to as:
Genus Eunectes: Any anaconda is in this group of Water Snakes.
Eunectes Notaeus: A.k.a the yellow spotted anaconda.
Eunectes Deschauenseei: a.k.a the dark spotted anaconda
Eunectes Murinus: The common anaconda
Giant Anaconda: This is a mysterious & mystical snake of enormous sizes found in South America
Water Boa: Anacondas are a part of the Boa family so they can be called this, or even just “Boa”

4. HABITAT...
Anacondas mostly live by rivers, pools or
swamps in the Amazon Rainforest Range.
They are known to feel at home in water as
they are well adapted to swimming and
hunting in the water; where they are at at
their best. They tend to drift in the water,
only slightly lifting their head once in a
while to breathe. Anacondas can also be
spotted in the Guiana’s & throughout the
regions of South America & the Orinoco
Basins. There is word going around that
anacondas can be located in the East of the
Andes where as the Yellow Anaconda can
(or has) been spotted in the south of

5. DIET....
An Anaconda living in the wild has a diet which
consists of: deer, wild pigs, ocelot, birds, other
snakes, tapirs, sheep, dogs and large rodents like
agouti, paca and capybara. The larger the
Anaconda, the bigger the prey it can take out.
Once, 26 foot Anaconda was reported to have
attacked and consumed a 6-and-a-half-foot
caiman(species of crocodile). Some anacondas
have been reported to be a length of 30 feet; any
animal that size could take out anything, even
jaguars and humans! They have deadly strength
and accuracy. On land they strike at their prey and
strangle them to death with their lean powerful
muscles. In water, they are best at hunting. They
sneak up on their prey and entrap it with their
powerful jaws; slowly enwrapping it and drowning
it to death. From that point onwards, the anaconda
slowly consumes the prey.

6. PREDATORS...
The anaconda has two
predators. Anacondas tend
to be cannibals and any
smaller anaconda will
make a good snack for a
larger anaconda. Humans
are the other predator.
Humans kill anacondas in
two ways; deforestation of

7. LIFE SPAN...
Anacondas bear
live young and
tend to live from
a range of 10-30
years, but this has
not been fully
confirmed. The
anaconda grows
quite quickly in

8. ADAPTIONS...
Anacondas are the biggest snake to record so
far; something to be afraid of. They have long
and powerful bodies in order to strangle their
prey successfully. The bigger the anaconda, the
more capable it is of fasting for months - even
years! Even one captive anaconda fasted for two
years without any food. They are nocturnal so
they have the advantage at night with being
naturally stealthy and able to swim. They are
adapted to live in the water; their eyes and
nostrils are on the top of the head so all of it’s
body can be submerged underwater. They are
great swimmers as they are strong and swift.
Once one has gotten ahold of you, you’re good
as dead. The young are usually born two feet
long, and within two hours they can hunt, swim
and care for themselves. They grow big but once
one has reached sexual maturity, they grow at a
slower rate. A reticulated python may grow

9. ADAPTIONS...
Each anaconda
The anacondas has it’s own
nostril and unique pattern,
eyes are on the which
top of it’s head camouflages it
so more of it’s
body can be

10. ADAPTIONS...
The anaconda
has a powerful
jaw to get a
good hold onto
its prey so it can
enwrap it.
The anaconda has
powerful muscles
The young are to constrict it’s
born two feet so prey.
in an hour a
snake-let can
hunt and fend for
