Anacondas are actually a genus of boas. They are probably bigger than the snakes we usually refer to as boas (such as boa constrictors) because they are adapted to prey on larger animals (up to and including tapirs, capybaras, deer, jaguars, caymans, and even domesticated goats and dogs that stray too close to the water) compared to boas (which mostly stick to rodents, smaller birds, and similar sized animals).
