The Waorani are reportedly losing their ancestral lands to oil pollution, according to the BBC. The hunting family was tasked with catching and releasing a green anaconda back into the wild as part of the first episode of the BBC Two three-part documentary series.Ĭapturing the green anaconda individual with the help of the Waorani hunters also gave scientific researchers an opportunity to collect samples to test for the impact of oil pollution in the area. Gordon Buchanan was filming a Waorani hunting family in Ecuador’s deep and remote Amazon jungle when the giant green anaconda (Eunectus murinus) was discovered. The world’s longest green anaconda, a 17-foot monster, has been discovered in the Amazon jungle by a BBC Two presenter during filming of a new three-part BBC documentary, Tribes, Predators and Me.
