It's not a Green Anaconda, their eyes are situated more on top of their heads, rather than to the sides, like the boa pictured...which shared the enclosure with the anaconda...perhaps that's how the pic got in with the article...

The pic is a boa, the story reads as if a boa, so I feel the annie part is to sell papers.
And does anyone see anyting wrong with boas laying eggs?

Another oddity about the 'annie'.
<TABLE BORDER=0 ALIGN=CENTER WIDTH=85%><TR><TD><font class="pn-sub">Quote:</font><HR></TD></TR><TR><TD><FONT class="pn-sub"><BLOCKQUOTE>Rafaela, a 32-year-old anaconda that weighs 100 pounds, </BLOCKQUOTE></FONT></TD></TR><TR><TD><HR></TD></TR></TABLE>
A little light for any 32 year old annie but about right for an adult (very large) boa.
And the 32 years??
A little old too...
