A Spotted Anaconda With Three Watermelons

A big, cheerful anaconda fills most of the picture. Its thick body loops in an S-shape from the top of the sheet down to the fruit, large oval spots cover its back, and smooth bands run along its belly. The snake has round friendly eyes, a wide smile and a thin forked tongue that flicks out toward the watermelon on the right. Below its coils, three whole watermelons stand side by side, each with wavy stripes on the rind and a little curled stem on top. The simple layout leaves plenty of room for working carefully around every spot.

Anacondas: Giant Snakes of South America

The green anaconda is the heaviest snake on Earth. It lives in swamps, marshes and slow rivers of tropical South America, especially in the Amazon and Orinoco basins. Its eyes and nostrils sit on top of its head, so it can watch and breathe while the rest of its body stays hidden under water.

Anacondas are not venomous. They are constrictors that wrap their coils around prey, and unlike many snakes, females give birth to live young instead of laying eggs. The name is also perfect for letter practice: anaconda begins and ends with A and contains three of them in total.

  • Anaconda back: olive green with large black oval spots

Do anacondas really eat watermelons?
No. Anacondas are meat eaters that feed on fish, birds, capybaras and caimans. The watermelons are simply a fun prop in this picture.
How much of a watermelon is water?
A ripe watermelon is more than 90 percent water, which makes it a juicy, refreshing snack on hot summer days.
