Incredible to see those two records of huge anacondas, but that are completelly ignored in the litterature because they are in jaguar books. This is the same that happen with the two Nepalese tigers in the book of Dr Dinerstein, nobody is going to search tiger records in a rhino book, or anacondas in a jaguar book.

That record of the anaconda of 6 meters long from Dr Hoogesteijn's book (Venezuela) and the 5.7 m giant from De Almeida book (Brazil) must be in the table of records of anacondas. Incredible as it is, the figure of 110 kg was from an "empty" animal, making it one of the heaviest anaconda on record in the wild. There are other records in captivity, as you know, but came from snakes that were pregnant.

Thank you for sharing @epaiva and @Pckts. Happy Like
