Pick
it up and move it of course
February
2013. Marie-France Grenouillet, a wildlife photographer, has sent us a couple
of her holiday snaps she took on a recent trip to Colombia.
While
staying at the Juan Solito Lodge, some local fisherman spotted this 5 metre
anaconda near their regular fishing pool in the Hato La Aurora reserve. The
fishermen decided that they would feel safer if the snake was a little further
away, so they picked it up, and moved it to a more suitable pool in the middle
of the reserve.
The
green anaconda is the largest species of anaconda and can grow up to 17 feet
long and weigh as much as 100 kilograms. They are mostly aquatic and nocturnal,
and will eat a range of prey from deer, tapir and capybara to caiman, birds and
fish.
