This book is an expanded and updated look at Common Boas, True Red-tailed Boas, and other rare and endangered Boa Species and subspecies. These snakes are not only fascinating for herpetologists and conservationists who study them in nature but they have also held the spot of the most commonly kept reptile pet for more than four decades. Vincent Russo's lifetime of experience with these snakes, both in nature and captivity, make this book a deep and detailed look into the lives of boas. This book includes a breath-taking photo gallery of boas from collections around the world and their inspiring pattern and colour anomalies.
