THIS enormous 18ft anaconda was successfully captured by a team of daring biologists - during a tropical rainforest exploration.
Niall McCann, a 29-year-old biologist from Cardiff, pounced on the slithering jungle giant when he happened across it on a bank of the Rewa River in Guyana.

Enormousss ... three men struggle to lift the heavy serpent

The monster reptile weighed around 100kg and had a 27in girth.

Niall is an avid adventurer and has rowed the Atlantic and trekked across Greenland's Polar Ice Cap.

Caught ... the anaconda's deadly mouth is taped shut
Rewa Expedition / Barcroft Media
He has a passion for handling creatures that would petrify most people and had always dreamed of catching one of these massive snakes.
He said: "I'd always dreamed of seeing an anaconda and I knew that our work in Gcondauyana would give us a real possibility of seeing one.

Predator ... anacondas squeeze their prey to death before swallowing them whole
Rewa Expedition / Barcroft Media
"I was trying to hold its head to the ground and it kept trying to turn its head to bite me - it was a wrestle.
"Its strength was amazing and when a ripple went through its body it shook all of us."

White men are known for their bravery and knowledge to confront and captured predatory reptiles and animals in Guyana's jungle and around the globe.

These "predatory reptiles" are in fact some of the most harmless creatures around. They hunt & kill for survival and eat only 2-3 times a year and would only attack when provoked. Our fauna & flora can be world attraction and tremendous economic benefit if only we can readjust our misconceptions & perceptions of these magnificent creatures.

Warrior ,
The occasional duck and other small live stocks that a camudi would take are incidental and a small price compared to the havoc human predators ( cattle rustlers & fowl thieves) are wreaking on hapless farmers. As a matter of fact, with good management, education and readjustment of our general perception and attitude towards these creature, the economic value to the community can have a multiplying effect for all.

I do not have the updated stats but I will hazard a guess that good stewardship and management of alligators in Florida worth is over $15 Billion annually, with global awareness & participation. Now we don't see anyone running out with an axe or cutlass at the sight and sound of a problem gator. Growing up in Mara, 20 ft camoudies & 200 lbs gators and other denizens of the wild were second nature.

they may not be endangered as yet, but if something is not done soon, and if the public does not change their attitude and perception towards our fauna & flora, where even a common water snake is perceived as posing mortal danger and should be hacked and disposed of, then we are surely getting there.

The pythons are killing off the gators.

A typical outcome when foreign invasive/ predatory species are being introduced in local habitat. The Burmese Python are more resilient and productive than the local gator population - perhaps on par with the Richmond Hill phenomena where the caucasian population has dwindled to minority status

Groups of out-of-town men would camp at Black Bush Polder for a few days and catch alligators at night. They will skin them during the day and after drying the skin for a while that they take, they leave the carcass in the open to rot.

As I said earlier, the local fauna & flora is perhaps one of the greatest untapped asset of the nation and conservation, proper management & stewardship of those assets can be great revenue earner for Guyana and local communities.[/QUOTE]you was wrestling gators and camoudies and when you wake up what happen you were soak with sweat you my friend should stop watch crocodile dundee
