00:00 The anaconda shares its flooded plains with the capybara, the largest rodent in the world.
00:06 It often weighs 50 kilos.
00:08 They feed on aquatic plants, so they spend a lot of time near the water.
00:14 The favorite hunting ground for the anaconda.
00:19 [Music]
00:29 The anaconda can stay under water for 10 minutes.
00:33 It takes a long time to get its head out to assess the distance.
00:37 [Music]
00:53 Then it waits.
00:55 Ready to attack.
00:59 The capybara, credule, stays there, not moving.
01:06 [Music]
01:12 It attacks, gripping its rodent with its six rows of teeth, and wraps itself around it.
01:19 Every time its prey expires, the anaconda re-tightens its grip.
01:26 It shrinks the blood flow of the heart, causing a cardiac arrest.
01:35 [Music]
01:41 The anaconda cannot tear its prey apart, so it has to swallow its entire meal, over a meter long.
01:49 The snake's flexible jaw opens wide.
01:59 And it uses its teeth to slide the capybara's body, swallowing its prey in one giant piece.
02:08 [Music]
02:18 Now it's resting. It will digest its meal for more than two weeks.
02:23 A capybara of this size will satisfy it for several months.
02:28 But it will eventually need to eat again, and no one will be safe from its deadly pressure.
02:35 (whooshing)
