    Explorer Ash drops us right into the Amazon river, which happens to be infested with green anacondas! Yikes! Farmer Cody, on the other hand, takes us to the very first Ancient Chick-Fil-A to introduce us to the mighty Ziz!Clarification about the boa/anaconda question: Anacondas are a type of boa! So not all boas are anacondas, but all anacondas are boas.Clarification about the teeth: Anacondas, like most snakes, have four rows of teeth in their upper mouth. These teeth are NOT retractable, but they are super sharp and are recurved, meaning they curl back toward the throat. This curvature makes it near impossible for prey to escape the bite.Socials:faunsandfauna@gmail.com@faunsandfaunainstagram.com/faunsandfaunaMusic from Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/jonny-boyle/bright-lifeLicense code: LBDEAXGEXA0NBTXW
