In Santa Maria River, located in Brazil, a group of men decided to take a journey and discover the protected wildlife there.
They were just looking for a reptile when they saw an anaconda taking a rest after it claimed a decent meal. The men had an idea to continuously poke a snake with their wooden oar until it got disturbed.
The anaconda did its best to escape the threat that it sensed. But since it just got its meal, it was harder for the Anaconda to move on the river.
These men were not contented to just see the anaconda. One man tried to pull its tail twice. They filmed this incident and uploaded it online which got the attention of the Brazilian Environmental Authorities.
The authorities said that their actions toward the protected wildlife was inappropriate and they were asked to pay $600 fine and community service.
