The boa constrictor is a snake in South America that "hugs" its prey—more accurately, it constricts it. After striking and grabbing the prey with its teeth, it coils its muscular body around the animal and squeezes, tightening each time the prey exhales. This constriction cuts off blood flow and breathing, leading to death.
Another notable constrictor in South America is the green anaconda, one of the largest snakes in the world. It uses the same method of killing, often targeting larger prey due to its immense size.
