Green_Anacondas

Green Anacondas My project is on Green Anacondas. The name anaconda comes from the Asian Indian Singhalese language. The Tamil word for anaconda is “antichlor” which means elephant killer. No one really knows why this name was made to represent a South American Snake, unless an anaconda and python are mistaken for the same species. Both snakes are great swimmers. They are the two largest snakes in the world. The early Spanish settlers referred to the anacondas as a matatoro or bull killer. Anacondas are dark green with alternating oval black spots. Anacondas are also the heaviest snakes in the world. They can weigh up to 550lbs, and measures up to 29 feel long. The center of the body may be up to 12 inches in diameters. Anaconda’s life span is 15-20 years in the wild and up to 30 years in captivity. Anacondas have a slow digestive system. It often takes days or weeks to digest its food.
