theres no evidence whatsoever for this extreme length claim,an 18ft wc anaconda can easily have a head that large,there was a much larger green photographed with an even larger head with a local man holding her unfortunately while deceased and that female was just over 19ft

No it was killed before the photo was taken
about 400km from Manaus in Brazil
Supposedly responsible for five deaths of native fishermen

Steve there are no exact measurements given
But the photographer was adamant biggest he had ever seen
19ft annie
Take it you mean the photo with hunter holding head and body in coils right beside river?

this isn't the one I was talking about but it's another good example,this green also has a huge head but is not particularly long,it has def recently eaten obviously which is when they r so vulnerable to hunters on land,shame really

If you go on YouTube write in sucuri gigante and many huge anacondas come up on there,most claimed at 8 metres but the reality is they are massive in build so they look much longer than they are,there's a few on there in the 6 metre range though,sadly some are killed but a few unharmed so caution advised
