This monstrous, serpentine brute which is more than 17ft doesn’t just originate from the group of the world’s biggest snakes. It is the biggest ever caught. The catch of the Anaconda is a piece of a BBC narrative; Tribes, Predators and Me presented by Gordon Buchanan who lived nearby an indigenous Ecuadorian tribe, the Waorani, in the Amazon.
In the show, Buchanan joins a tribal family to chase an Anaconda, the Amazon’s most unsafe predator, the creature is a demonstrated man-eater yet local people trust its catch and release is an indication of bravery as well as see the accomplishment as a source of profound spiritual power. .
There is likewise an investigative explanation behind the catch as the Waorani are losing their territory to oil exploration – with researchers testing anacondas for the impacts of oil contamination.
Buchanan lives close by the indigenous people for two weeks taking in their ways and how they have adjusted to live alongside some of the world’s most dangerous creatures including Jaguars.
