‘Wrong animal’: Man tries to pull anaconda from water, netizens horrified

A spine-chilling video of a man pulling a 17-foot anaconda from water has resurfaced on the internet and is now going viral. The short clip which was initially posted back in 2014 was reportedly shot in Brazil. As per reports, the incident occurred when a group of three people, boating down the Santa Maria River, came across the gigantic snake. 

In the 19-second-video, one can see Betinho Borges attempting to catch the anaconda by its tail, even though the distressed snake tries to get away from the boat. One can also hear a woman yelling ‘leave it’ in Portuguese while another person can be heard instigating Borges to catch the anaconda. Borges, in the clip, can be seen holding the giant snake by its tail and pulling it several times before the reptile manages to shake the boat off and swim away.
