The Amazon jungle is home to many wonders and dangers, as revealed in a recent video that has caught the attention of Bigfoot enthusiasts. The video, discovered on the YouTube channel Epic Wildlife, takes viewers on a journey through some of the most intriguing and frightening phenomena found in the Amazon.
One of the most fascinating discoveries mentioned in the video is the Boiling River, a river of scorching hot water capable of reaching temperatures of 200°F. This geothermal feature, located in Peru, is a mystery to scientists, as there are no nearby volcanoes or magmatic systems that could explain its extreme heat. The only explanation that makes sense is that a hydrothermal feature is causing the river to reach such high temperatures.
Another intriguing discovery is the Anaconda diving incident, where a man named Bartolomeo Bo intentionally went diving in the Amazonian River in search of the largest snake on the planet. He came face to face with a 23-foot-long green anaconda, which luckily for him, didn't seem very hungry. The encounter was captured on video, and the snake can be seen swimming away, seemingly uninterested in the diver.
The Brazilian grape tree is another curiosity found in the Amazon. At first glance, it looks like the tree is covered in diseased sores, but upon closer inspection, it's revealed that the "sores" are actually small violet fruits that sprout directly from the tree's trunk. The tree is known as a cifu, and its actual name is the jababa tree. The fruit is edible and is popular in South America, though it's not widely seen in the United States.
The Silkhenge spider is another curious discovery in the Amazon. This spider weaves its own henge formation out of silk, creating a tapered central cone and an outer ring of delicate silk pillars. The spider builds this structure to protect its egg sacks from predators. This behavior is unique to this spider, and scientists are still trying to understand why it exhibits this behavior.
The video also touches on the topic of loggers in the Amazon, who are some of the most violent and dangerous animals currently operating in the jungle. These loggers are responsible for the death of an indigenous Amazon Guardian, who was ambushed and shot by a pack of loggers. The Guardians are trying to protect the forest and keep the tribes from being contacted, but it's a struggle against illegal loggers who are pushing deeper into the jungle.
The Amazonian Bigfoot, known as the mapinguari, is also mentioned in the video. This creature is said to have the body of a large bear, the clawed feet of a giant armadillo, and the face of either a human or a monkey. Some claim that it has a mouth on its stomach that it uses to eat humans, while others believe it's a supernatural monster. While there's no concrete evidence of its existence, some believe that it could be one of the last living remnants of a giant ground sloth that lived 8,000 years ago.
Overall, the video is a fascinating look at some of the wonders and dangers found in the Amazon jungle. From boiling rivers to giant snakes and mysterious creatures, the Amazon never fails to amaze and intrigue. As Bigfoot believers, we are always on the lookout for new and exciting discoveries, and this video certainly delivers.
