What do anacondas hunt and how do they hunt?
They will eat anything that they can swallow. Birds, mammals, fish, amphibians and other reptiles. Nothing is off the menu. They are stealth hunters that often hunt from the water and attack from below. They use smell to locate prey. Because the Anaconda are so large and heavy they spend most of their adult life in the water because it helps support their massive weight. It is very rare to see a large adult on land. Also they are are considered to be constrictors. This means that they squeeze they prey until they are dead.
Does a black panther eat an anaconda?
Not unless they meet in the zoo ! Anaconda live in South America & Black panthers (Which are leopards without the spots) live in Africa & Asia. The big cat of South America is the Jaguar.

Was the anaconda plan for the union or the confederacy?
The Anaconda Plan was a military strategy devised by the Union during the American Civil War. It aimed to suffocate the Confederacy's economy through a naval blockade and by gaining control of the Mississippi River, effectively splitting the South in two. The plan was designed to weaken the Confederacy gradually, limiting its ability to sustain the war effort.
How many Anaconda babies survive childhood?
about 10-20, depending on where the nest is located and the Black Camian(main preadator) population increase/decrease
Anaconda's are native to the South American continent. They inhabit the lush rain forests of the Amazon river in countries like Columbia, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay etc. They live in Swamps, Marshes and slow moving streams in the Amazon & Orinoco river basins. They prefer dense vegetation where they can easily sneak up on unsuspecting prey and hunt them.
An anaconda is a large, non-venomous snake found in tropical South America. Although the name actually applies to a group of snakes, it is often used to refer only to one species in particular, the common or green anaconda, Eunectes murinus, which is one of the largest snakes in the world.
They are like pythons and will constict your breathing until you suffocate to death.
The question what is the biggest snake can be confusing, the biggest as far as girth is the Green Anaconda, on average anacondas are more then 20 ft long many reaching lengths of 29ft or more, with a weight of over 550 lbs, in terms of length then and only then will the Reticulated Python exceed the anaconda, the longest python was measured at 33ft but even this python can't match the total mass of the anaconda.
Anacondas are members of the Boidae family of reptiles and spend most of their time in rivers and swamps of the Amazon in South America, female anacondas are generally larger then the males and bear their young live and are called "Neonates", the number of young varies, some have produced 100 babies, but the average is between 20 to 40 babies. Dietconsist of (depending on the size of the anaconda, the larger the snake the larger the prey) large/small rodents like capybaras, also pigs, caiman, jaguars, deer, dogs, birds even fish and is acquired by ambushing and constricting it's prey (the anaconda is so powerful it generally crushes it's prey) then swallowing it whole, the digestion of the anaconda is very slow thereby allowing it to survive without food for well over a year.
Anacondas have around a 30 year life span and the biggest threat to it is man and loss of their habitat.
What will happen if a blck mamba vs anaconda fighting together?

The question what is the biggest snake can be confusing, the biggest as far as girth (largest being measured at 44 inches or 1,1176 m) is the Green Anaconda, on average anacondas are more then 20 ft long many reaching lengths of 29ft or more, with a weight of over 550 lbs, in terms of length then and only then will the Reticulated Python exceed the anaconda, the longest python was measured at 33ft but even this python can't match the total mass of the anaconda.

I am unsure about American Owls but in Europe Owls eat a diet of small rodents like Water Voles, field mice etc. I've not heard of one eating a snake.

The question what is the biggest snake can be confusing, the biggest as far as girth (largest being measured at 44 inches or 1,1176 m) is the Green Anaconda, on average anacondas are more then 20 ft (6.09 m) long with and average weight of 300+ pounds (136.08+ kg) many reaching lengths of 29ft ( 8.83 m) or more, with a weight of over 550 lbs ( 249.48 kg), in terms of length then and only then will the Reticulated Python exceed the anaconda, the longest python was measured at 33 ft ( 10.05 m) but even this python can't match the total mass of the anaconda.
Anacondas are members of the Boidae family of reptiles and spend most of their time in rivers and swamps of the Amazon Rainforest in South America which makes them excellent swimmers and are capable of holding their breath for around 15 minutes, female anacondas are generally 3 to 4 times larger then the males and bear their young live and are called "Neonates", the number of young varies, some have produced 100 babies, but the average is between 20 to 40 babies which are about 24 inches (0.6 m) long. Diet consist of (depending on the size of the anaconda, the larger the snake the larger the prey) large/small rodents like capybaras, also pigs, caiman, jaguars, deer, dogs, birds even fish and is acquired by ambushing with a quick strike, 100 rear-facing sharp teeth hold the prey while suffocating it with constriction, (the anaconda is so powerful it generally crushes it's prey) then swallowing it whole, the digestion of the anaconda is very slow thereby allowing it to survive without food for well over a year.
Anacondas have around a 10 to 12 year year life span in the wild, in captivity some have reached 20 + years, the biggest threat to it is man and loss of their habitat.
Does an anaconda live in the tundra?
Yes, they live on the forest floor of the Amazon Rainforest in South America, it is a very dense tropical forest covering about 5,117,258.95 square miles (8,235,430 square kilometers), it is rich in microorganisms which provide quick decomposition for compost that is very rich and provides a dark, warm and very moist climate, they also spend much if not most of their time in the rivers, lakes and marshes.

What strategies did the south have in the anaconda plan?
The Anaconda Plan was Gen.Winfield Scott's strategic plan for the North, not for the South. It consisted of blockading southern seaports and capturing the river ports of the Mississippi River. The South did not have an articulated war policy. It is one of their greatest failings.
Would anaconda be capitalized?
No, it's just a noun, not a proper noun. There's different types of anacondas.
Its actually weird that a Anaconda would eat a human! Almost never happens! But don't take this to far, if threatened, and provoked it will attack!
no they don't eat people but they have been known to eat small children
What are the colors can an anaconda can be?
The two commonest species are the Green anaconda and the Yellow anaconda.
It is very thick, reaching radius lengths of 2 ft at most.
