Readers will learn all about this powerful predator. Fascinating photographs show different types of anacondas as they swim, hunt, and squeeze their prey in the rain forests of South America. Series Review: Killer Snakes Set 1"Fledgling readers who thrill to the sight of a taipan swallowing a mouse, a python downing a large mammal (perhaps a deer), or a death adder lunging straight toward them will eat these up."-School Library Journal
