Trivia[]
- He appears to be a green anaconda (Eunectes murinus) due to the size of his body. It is also because of the olive-green with dark oval spots along his spine that makes his kind more identical to the specie. However, giving his unexpected size, the length of his body looks to be slightly inspired by an extinct species of snake known as the Titanoboa (titanius cerrejonensis).
- Despite his famished feelings about eating rodents, he was one of the only characters in the film not to actually do evil deeds on Chip and Dale even if he is considered a predator.
- Herzonaurach is not the first reptile Flula Borg has voice acted. Flula has previously voiced Professor Herringbone from the Amphibia episode "Sprig Gets Schooled".
- He could likely be designed after Bud from the Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers episode "Good Times, Bat Times".
