There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Quote:Anaconda Verde update of new scientifically proven size and weight records - 6.40 to 6.50 m and 170 kg

The record update comes on the basis of the 6.21 meter long skeleton that belonged to a specimen shot dead by a cowboy when found devouring a pig on a farm in the municipality of Feijó in Acre state in Brazil on February 16, 2013, knowing through a scientific article Stretching the Truth: The Elastic Properties of the Body and Skin of a Giant Snake published by biologist David G Barker this managed to discover the difference between skeleton and a living specimen through this we were able to calculate the true size of this living specimen at approximately 6.40 to 6.50 m its Weight was described in a series of newspaper articles at the time as weighing 170 kg.
