I just saw something on TV that really blew me away....That’s unusual coming from me, as I don’t even watch very much TV these days, so
odds that I would be watching something that would totally floor me are just about zero. Despite that, I’m here to tell y’all that I just watched a TV program that almost made me come up out of my chair...
I hate to admit that I can’t even remember name of it as I was watching it at 3 am this morning (I have really weird sleeping habits, and let‘s just leave it at that). I want to say that it was something like “Animal Kingdom Match-Up,” or whatever. The show had a very basic premise - what would happen if you took two different species from animal kingdom and matched them up against each other? Which would win? I thought it was pretty creative, but what cinched it for me was two species they said they were about to match up, a tiger and an anaconda!
A tiger and an anaconda - talk about Super Bowl of animal kingdom match-ups! For a kid that grew up like I did watching all kinds of nature programs, this was something amazing, intriquing, and incredible all rolled up into one. And it appeared that they were going to literally match them up and let them fight it out right there on air! Think about it two combatants...
A tiger - lightning fast, armed with razor sharp claws that could take a man’s arm off in one swipe, and a bite that could quickly send someone to promised land. A cat weighing hundreds of pounds that will not hesitate to attack anything that he feels may be threatening him.
An anaconda - one of largest snakes in world, they can grow upwards to thirty feet, and can be a foot wide across middle. They’re so large that they can swallow whole species like alligators, cows, or even humans. They kill their victims by wrapping coils around them and constricting (squeezing to death) them. And if all of this isn’t bad enough, an anaconda has a large head with razor sharp fangs, if one bites you pulling it off is nearly impossible.
