SOCURIJU

        The Socuriju is a sort of big snake that, we think, may live in the Amazon, in South America.

According to the testimony of an explorer, P. Fawcett, who saw it personally, it may be long more than 40 meters (the most long snake that we know is the “Reticulate Python”, of 10 meters), a diameter of a 1 meter and a weight of more than 5 tons!

A specimen of these dimension was captured and killed by some local people near the city of Manao, in Brazil in 1948.
