[National Geographic Wallpaper] Green Anaconda (오리노코 우기의 아나콘다)


Orinoco River Basin, Venezuela
1996
Robert Caputo

“The rhythms of flood and drought regulate the pulse of life on the llanos [the vast grassland of Venezuela’s interior]. Coiled on a termite mound, an anaconda claims one of the few pieces of high ground left during the wet season, when an Orinoco tributary jumped its banks and flooded the grassland for miles.”

???From “The Orinoco: Into the Heart of Venezuela,” April 1998, National Geographic magazine
