ztirffritz, again...poor snake! Regurging is very hard on snakes & can even kill them. When snakes are stressed or ill, they will often do what he did. Given that he was being harassed by people, I'm not surprised he upchucked.
What I don't get is...what is an anaconda doing with a hippo (wrong continent)? Unless, it was at a zoo.
But, my guess is that it threw up a capybara, not a hippo. Look at the feet for hints & then compare the animal's feet with these:

(sorry to burst everyone's bubble)
Tales of giant snakes eating really big things are almost always exaggerated.
