Traffic halts as giant anaconda crosses road in Brazil; video goes vir

According to Global News report, a video shared by Italo Nascimento Fernandes shows the large snake trying to cross the road as people around it watch with fear. We can also see people getting down from their cars and alerting other approaching vehicles to let the reptile pass by.

The snake was about over three-metres long and weighs around 30 kilograms. Biologist Flavio Terassini told Brazilian news website G1 Globo that the snake had wandered on the road in search of something to eat, media reports added. 

“These snakes can appear in the urban area in search of food, which are small rodents, and in the city they can feed on dogs and even cats, so it’s good to be careful not to leave the trash in the yard because these animals can smell the rodents or these animals and come close to homes, especially in the rainy season,” Terassini told the website.
