Massive anaconda measuring 10m found by construction workers in Brazil

Brazil: A massive 10m anaconda weighing an estimated 400kg and capable of eating a man has been captured by dam construction workers in Brazil as it founds it's way into the building site.

The gigantic snake was tied down to a crane and a chain wrapped around it.
From the video below, the awesome length of the snake can be seen in full as the camera moves from its head to tail.

The huge snake was said to have been found by workers building the Belo Monte dam in Altamira, Brazil, and was flushed out by an explosion.

Viewers on You Tube have criticized the men for killing the snake.

The footage of its massive, broad head shows its mouth wide open and eyes glazed over.

One commenter said:

"Shame on these people for killing it! A snake that big has probably been alive for a very long time now, just to be killed for a few pictures? What a waste."

Another added:

"Why would you kill such a beautiful snake?"

A third commenter, and a self-professed snake lover, said:

"I adore the cuties. I have two of my own. But they were doing construction, and it was in the way.

"Do you know how hard it is to move a 30 foot snake? Especially a wild anaconda.

"Anacondas are extremely aggressive snakes. Even in captivity, they're extremely hard to tame down and can be very bitey. A wild one, I wouldn't want to mess with at all."
