you are a giant
female anaconda in Venezuela
you're thirteen feet long and you are hungry
note make that you are starving
and you've got your listless eyes
on the largest rodents on the planet Capybara
adults can grow more than 4 feet long and can top
100 pounds you the anaconda
can really see your prey all that well but your tongue posing
sent molecules that tell you this is the massive meal you wanna swallow in
one prolonged gull both you and Capybaras spend most of your time in the
water
and one unfortunate Capybara will have nowhere to hide when you hunt it
at high speed
use leather underwater
topping your head out to make sure your aim is true
the big reason you're so focused on a satisfying meal
is that you're about to mate and only well-fed snakes breed successfully
once you get pregnant you won't eat again until your babies are born
7 months later
so you better stop yourself to the scales now
these birds can save themselves Capybara out
it's a goner anaconda don't poison their prey
may ambushed them
they bite then coil around and crush the surprised creatures
to death your death grip is so fierce
the victim not only can breath its blood can circulate
you suffered for this meal the Capybara took a bite out to you
but you get the last laugh when your own lasting jaws begins swallowing your
enormous victim head-first
your last meal before mating has taken six
hours to ingest not digest just getting in your gut
the digestion takes several days after that
you'll be fed in full ready for that successful breeding
