Anacondas, unlike some other larger boids, evolved in basically the complete absence of high ground, ie hills and mountains, in many areas, they are not found around permanent water. They have evolved to cope with water table fluctuations, judging from how glossy there skin is when humidity is high, humidity seems to be key in maintaining healthy anacondas, I do allow humidity to fall in the winter when allowing nightime drops for my yellows.......your comments welcome.
