Arab Weather - The Amazon rainforest is one of the most diverse and richest ecosystems on Earth. Its unique climatic conditions provide an ideal habitat for many creatures, most notably the green anaconda, the world's largest snake and one of the longest.

The humid climate of the Amazon provides an ideal environment for the largest anaconda on Earth.

The Amazon's climate is warm and humid year-round, with an average annual temperature of around 25°C and an annual relative humidity of nearly 90%. These are ideal conditions for reptiles that require stable temperatures and constant water sources.

This humid environment is enhanced by the continuous extension of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), which results in heavy rainfall throughout the year, with an average annual rainfall of approximately 3,000 mm. This results in abundant water and thriving swamps, ponds, and flooded forests, which are the preferred habitat for anacondas.

Green anacondas inhabit these swamps and quiet waterways, where they find the food and cover they need for survival. They rely on ambushes to hunt their prey, taking advantage of the dense vegetation and stagnant water.

Scientists agree that the continued humid climate of the Amazon is a key factor in the survival of this species of snake, and even its development to such a large size. Some snakes can reach lengths exceeding 6 meters and weigh more than 100 kg.
