00:00 There are many species of reptiles around the world.
00:05 Only here in Brazil, there are more than 392 species of reptiles.
00:12 Despite the big differences between these different species,
00:16 only one stands out, the king cobra.
00:20 The king cobra is widespread in the Indian subcontinent,
00:23 southeast Asia and north Africa.
00:26 Its habitat includes plains, fields, agricultural areas and dense forests.
00:31 The king cobra prefers to be near streams, lakes and waterfalls.
00:37 Because it finds a place to climb and swim,
00:40 it can be found on trees or in water.
00:43 It has fixed tusks in the front part of its mouth,
00:47 and it uses these deadly tusks like thorns to sting its prey.
00:52 The king cobra differs from other cobra species in that it is larger
00:57 and its tusks are longer and narrower.
01:00 When it feels danger, it blows its tusks and shows its tusks,
01:04 which look like bronze eyes in the back part of the tusk,
01:08 and it starts to sting to scare its enemies.
01:12 Mainly in Brazil, there are large and ferocious reptiles.
01:18 In today's video, we will show you the largest reptile ever caught by the camera.
01:25 The giant anaconda.
01:27 It usually reaches an average of 3 to 4 meters in length,
01:32 but like nature, it is completely unpredictable.
01:36 There are reports that it has been found on the longest anaconda in the world,
01:41 which may reach more than 9 meters in length.
01:44 The green anaconda is the largest reptile in the world,
01:47 as it can weigh more than 249 kilograms,
01:52 but its length is more than 9 meters and its diameter is more than 30 centimeters.
01:58 It has sharp, curved teeth that help it to catch the prey and prevent it from escaping.
02:06 It spends most of its time in the water and is able to move it faster than it moves on the dry.
02:13 It is able to hide its body completely in the water,
02:17 thanks to the location of the eyes and the openings of the nostrils at the top of its head.
02:22 The anaconda lives near the water and waits for the animals that run to the water to drink.
02:28 It crawls on it and kills it by wrapping its body around it and squeezing it until it runs out of breath,
02:35 then it takes it to the water, and there it swallows it whole as it is.
02:41 Thanks to the rubber bands that tie its jaws,
02:44 the anaconda can open its mouth to become three times its size.
02:50 The anaconda's diet consists of a wide range of prey,
02:55 such as wild boars, water boars, geese, birds,
02:59 American feral elephants, and jaguars.
03:03 The anaconda can survive for weeks or months without food if it eats a large, filling meal.
