🐍Green anaconda
La anaconda verde o común, sucurí, sucuriú, güio negro o güio de agua (Eunectes murinus) es una especie de serpiente constrictora de la familia de las boas (Boidae). Es endémica de los ríos del trópico de Sudamérica. De todas las serpientes esta es la de mayor tamaño (hablando de peso);[cita requerida] se la hace rivalizar con la pitón reticulada (Malayopython reticulatus) por el título de la serpiente más grande del mundo, que suele ser más larga, pero menos voluminosa. Se conocen casos de humanos adultos atacados,[cita requerida] aunque ninguna serpiente (Malayopython reticulatus como excepción) tiende a atacar a un ser humano, salvo por defensa propia, ya que estos no forman parte de su cadena trófica.
