According to a 2024 report by Money Control, in collaboration with the indigenous Waorani people and with support from National Geographic’s Disney+ series Pole to Pole featuring Will Smith, scientists have uncovered new insights. They explored the heart of the Baihuaeri Waorani Territory in the Ecuadorian Amazon, documenting the massive size of the Northern Green Anaconda.
The discovery of the Northern Green Anaconda comes at a critical moment. The Amazon, home to unmatched biodiversity, faces constant threats from human activity, including industrial agriculture, deforestation, and pollution. These pressures are pushing the region toward ecological collapse, endangering species like the giant anaconda. Researchers stress that protecting the habitats of these creatures is vital for the Amazon’s future. Strong conservation efforts are urgently needed to help ensure the survival of the Northern Green Anaconda and other species that call the rainforest home.
