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.

There is one or more account of anaconda predation on jaguar from the book ''Tales of Giant Snakes: A Historical Natural History of Anacondas and Pythons''. However those accounts are very little detailed with no description of the animals. They also don't have any picture or drawing iirc. Do you think they are reliable?

@HyperNova

You are right my Friend  I have that Book and it does not have detailed descripcion and pictures of the animals, I dont think it is completely reliable, here in South America (Brazil, Colombia and Venezuela) many people say they have seen huge Anacondas up to 12 meters long but you can not find a picture of one over 6 mt long the only thing you can find is the  skin and Snake skins are not acceptables as proof of giant snake's size because they are easily stretched up to two times the length of the snake. I have been looking for huge Anacondas since 2001 and the longest one I found measured 5,35 mt long, I contacted Jesus Rivas who has captured and measured more than  800 Anacondas and the longest one measured by him was 5,21 mt long. According to the information of the late Jose Ayarzaguena a herpetologist who worked in the Venezuelan Llanos for 30 years the largest he captured measured 6,50 mt long but he did not weight her. People fear too much big snakes and many persons kill them when ever the see a big one, they are only safe from man in protected areas, lets wait until some one discovers one like the one you posted that predated the Cougar.
