What is the BOA constriktor?
Boa Constrictor is a non -pressed, lonely and carnivorous snake, which is mainly based in rainforests, but can also be found in several arid desert environments. As the name suggests, the snake limits or crushes its prey to death. BOA Ostricities have a lifetime of 25 to 30 years, can grow up to 13 feet (about 4 m) long and weigh up to £ 100 (about 45 kg).
Its distinctive spots, snake marking details include a seemingly random range of lines, ovals and diamonds. Constricor Boa relies on his color for camouflage. It is leather, it can be green, red, yellow, brown, gray or cream.
Boa Constrictor is indigenous for Central and South America. Usually, it is successful in tropical rainforests, but can also create your home in deserts, savannas or fields. Snakes often live in hollow protocols or burrows where they can avoid potential predators. Being strong swimmers, boa constricors often live a river.
Boas are also night creatures and usually attackIts prey by attacking teeth first - snakes have small teeth that allow him to hang on his prey. While their prey is trapped, Boas is bothering and limiting their victims until they die of suffocation. Boas swallowed their victims all and usually hunts prey, which includes mongoosis, birds, cams, bats and rats. Boas also strikes when they are considered a danger.
Within four years, Boas can be reproduced. Females store their eggs inside their bodies and give birth to live Boas. After birth, the young are closed in a thin membrane from which they have to escape. BOA can produce up to 60 offspring at a time and usually give birth during the dry season. At birth, BOA average 15 to 20 inches (about 38 to 51 cm).
During the first few years of existence, boa wilto I intercede. The snake usually throws itself about once a month until it is fully adult. When boa reaches adulthood, she throws her skin approximately every 2 to 4 monthse. During the shed processing process, BOA often becomes defensive. While the new skin grows, a substance that causes the eyes of boa become opaque, making it difficult to see. This makes the snake more willing to go wild.
Several species of the BOA constructor are in the risk of extinction. BOAs are often hunted for their skin. Snake skin can be used to make clothing and additional items such as shoes and handbags.
