“Unbelievable Beasts: Discover the Colossal Creatures Roaming Our Planet Today!”
Giants Of The Amazon
Weighing up to 550 pounds and reaching a size of up to 30 feet in length, the Green Anaconda is the world’s biggest snake, but also the world’s biggest reptile. The green Anaconda isn’t quite the longest snake in the world, but when weight is considered, overall, it is the biggest. The snake can be found in remote regions throughout the central parts of South America and tend to stick to places close to water in the Amazon rainforest. They continue to grow throughout their entire lifespans and are predominantly nocturnal creatures that feed on capybaras, deer, tapirs, caimans, and on occasion even jaguars.
Goliath Frog
Although not quite the largest amphibian on earth, the Goliath frog still holds the title of being the largest living species of frogs on the planet! They can weigh over seven pounds and can only be found on the continent of Africa in the rivers within the countries of Cameroon and the Republic of Equatorial Guinea. Goliath frogs eat spiders, small snakes, crabs, turtles, smaller frogs, worms and other insects. They only eat small snakes as bigger snakes feed on the Goliath frogs. Goliath frogs live for up to 15 years and are currently classified as an endangered species.
Supersize Spiders
The Goliath Spider, also known as the bird-eating spider, is the world’s biggest spider in terms of mass and size. Found in the rainforest of South America, the Goliath Spider makes its home in borrows and female spiders can live anywhere from 15 to 25 years, with males living only three to six years. Despite one of its known names, the Goliath Spider only occasionally feasts upon adult birds, instead it eats other spiders, amphibians, snakes and rodents. Although the Goliath Spider is venomous, its venom isn’t as powerful as one might imagine and is comparable to the venom from a wasp sting.
