It's given the local people jobs as guides and cooks and chefs and carpenters.

And so macaws are a huge part of that because it's one of the last places where you can see these flying rainbows over the canopy.

Or when you're on a branch from one of these trees and macaws fly under you.

And again, that flyby, you just hear the wind in their feathers.

And they just, they'll look at you over their shoulder and go, what?

And just keep going.

and just loud and they'll just keep going and then they'll join up with other macaws and they fly across the horizon.

It gives you the sense like you're seeing something from the dinosaur times.

It just looks like wild jungle and there's nothing human in sight and there's just this savage canopy to the horizon and just these beautiful birds flying over.

They're just magical.

So as you know, we've been studying the...

habits of eunuch these marinas for quite a while um the lowland green anaconda is the largest heaviest snake on earth and i've been practicing a lot for a long time and this is the biggest one we've ever physically caught this was just under 20 feet it was 19 feet something and you can see she's in the middle of shedding

And the other interesting thing with her is that she had blue eyes because she was in the middle of shedding and the scale over their eyes turns blue right before it comes off of their head.

And so I've never caught a blue-eyed anaconda before.

But if you look at the size of my head and the size of my hands, you start to imagine that thing's head is bigger than a Great Dane's.

It's huge.

And so the power on that, when we tried to lift her to measure her, we wanted to bring her up out of the stream and get her over to the side so we can straighten her out and measure her.

And again, we're just trying to take some simple data points and then release her.

And she, at one point, she just decided to flex her body and you just see 10 people fly this way.

And then she flexed in the other way and 10 people fly this way.
