The world's largest type of snake by length is the green anaconda (Eunectes murinus), which can grow up to 29 feet (8.8 meters) long and weigh up to 550 pounds (250 kilograms).

Green anacondas are found in the swamps, marshes, and streams of South America, primarily in the Amazon Basin. They are non-venomous constrictors, meaning they squeeze their prey to death. Their diet consists mainly of fish, but they also eat other prey such as birds, reptiles, and mammals, including capybaras and deer.
