Boa

What is a "boa"?

A boa is a large, non-venomous snake known for its robust body and powerful constriction abilities. Boas are found in various parts of the world and come in different species, such as the boa constrictor. They have a distinct appearance with a thick body, a broad head, and keen eyesight. Boas are adept hunters and primarily feed on small to medium-sized mammals and birds, capturing their prey by constricting them with their muscular bodies. They are skilled climbers and often inhabit trees and dense vegetation. Boas are known for their relatively docile temperament, making them popular as exotic pets. They play an essential role in their ecosystems as both predator and prey, contributing to the balance of their respective habitats.
