I've had large constrictors for over 10 years. I don't think I've ever heard anyone ask if "hanging out" was something they could "achieve" with a large constrictor.

So, I really wouldn't suggest getting a large constrictor for "hanging out" purposes.

There's been far too much bad press for snakes. The media just loves to sensationalize when a snake is involved. Then they love to repeat the "mis-information" they spewed the first time.... over and over and over.

If you want an Anaconda and plan on being a "responsible owner" then go for it.

It you're just looking for a large animal to "hang out" with. Get a dog. They're more socially acceptable for hanging out purposes.
