    They were hunted for their skin, as were a lot of snakes, to make handbags, shoes etc but since the world has woken up to conservation, I believe it has been "outlawed".
    I think these is still a reward for finding the "giant" that's out there somewhere, not to kill, simply catch and record the details.

    I believe National Geographic has been offering $50,000 for anything over 30ft, or something like that.
    Use to be $10k, $25, and now I believe it's up to $50k.

    i guess this is when there were many people goes to amazon and said they saw an 80 feet anaconda.
    then many people talked about it and there may be some lie coming.
    then the competition began..
    colonel whom?
    i forget the colonel who went to amazon..
