The anaconda, the largest snake in the world, lives in the Amazon River Basin and other parts of South America. A very adept swimmer, it hunts its meals in the water using the cover of tangled roots to sneak up on its prey. It wraps its long, powerful body around its victim and either crushes it or suffocates it to death. In this short film, Ocean Adventures team members Celine Cousteau and Richard Murphy get up close and personal with this legend, in the two-hour program, Return to the Amazon, part of the series Jean-Michel Cousteau Ocean Adventures, shown on PBS.

  • i love getting my anaconda swallowed ..its Grrrrrrrreat....

  • @retalho it is not proven, but completely possible. however it takes a REAL big snake (not an impossibly big one tough!) because big cats can fool with snakes pretty easily and both anaconda and african rock python (the other big eater) have to be in their element and in ambush (python likes big grass..pretty scary XDD).

  • @LillaKurta Well... ok ! Damn, you are courageous nevertheless! It is something of unimaginable for me!

  • it's just a very small one i think, 14 feet long might be...

  • @florian7480 I worked with anacondas, they are dangerous but if you give them the respect and you know how you can handle them and first but not last you have at least three other friend who can handle an anaconda too and know what to do than it's an amazing thing to work with these giants.

  • @LillaKurta You fuckin' crazy ahahahah !! Are they also beautiful when they eat you ?

    These things affraid myself !

  • @GREATESTEVER86 you wouldnt be alive to spend the money

  • What a sweet little thing <3 I love snakes and this one is beautiful :)
