Finishing Up
Although they were surprised and stressed from the whole experience, the team was happier that they had helped save a snake’s life. Their job wasn’t done yet, though. They had to finish the surgery and close the anaconda’s belly.
As a precaution, the vet included a tracking device in the snake’s belly. She wanted to track its behavior for a while to see if it survived the ordeal. After they were done with the surgery, the team packed their equipment and moved the snake to an area far from the construction site. Then they waited for it to wake up.
