What Kind of Animal Isan Anaconda?

• Anacondas are reptiles. Reptiles have scales.
  They are cold-blooded. Most reptiles lay eggs,
  but anacondas give birth to live young. They are
  vertebrates, so they have spines. Anacondas are
  ectothermic. This means they are cold-blooded and
  they heat themselves from outside their body. The
  sun is one way that snakes warm their bodies.

Life of an Anaconda

• Anacondas are born alive not from eggs. Baby
  anacondas are called neonates. Neonates do not
  eat for the first few months. Because they are so
  small, baby anacondas are good prey for other
  animals. Right after birth, neonates can hunt,
  swim, and care for themselves. They continue to
  grow until about age 3 or 4. Anacondas can live
  to be about thirty.
