How to Catch a WILD 19 foot Anaconda!

Ep. 233 - Christian Cave of Caveman Wildlife joins the podcast to chat about his new documentary filmed in the Amazon Rainforest, catching the world’s largest snake: The Green Anaconda. Christian tells the very detailed and interesting story of how he found, caught, measured, and captured all of the moments of the journey in finding the Green Anaconda. Christian discusses the documentary filming process from start to finish, including drone footage of the environment, some ending thoughts from commenters about the documentary, and a important conversation about sensationalism in the wildlife content creation genre. We also briefly discuss Genesis 1:26 and Christian’s interpretation of the meaning when it comes to the treatment of wildlife and how it encourages him to continue education of animals. If you’re at all curious about the story of finding and capturing the world’s largest snake and the incredible moments that came along with it, this episode is a great one to tune into.
