Fox News
Researchers have identified the green anaconda as two separate species. National Geographic explorer Bryan Fry revealed details to Fox News Digital about the new snake type.
A study published in the journal MDPI Diversity used genetic data from four recognized anaconda species across nine countries. "It's clear that the snakes in the Waorani lands are indeed the biggest of all anacondas." "Our expedition was marked by the relentless heat, the omnipresent swarm of insects, and the symphony of the wild that crescendoed into the night." Angelica Stabile is a lifestyle writer for Fox News Digital.
Explorers and researchers found that the northern green anaconda is "genetically distinct" from its southern relative by 5.5%.
