Both subspecies do have the short tail in common.
The tails are not only short, but have a similar pattern too.
Seems to me that they would be related, based solely on the patterns (no pun) of reproduction in captive collections.
All it would take is one freak male. Not a stretch at all. Several folks around here have built their empire off of one freak Boa!
Jeff has said that the Monstertail matriarch, as well as her offspring, and grandchildren, if left to their own, are VERY aggressive! There was a post here showing a unique looking Albino awhile back. This person said it was the meanest Boa they had ever seen. In one response, someone...Phil Goss maybe, said that he had noticed a tendency in unique animals. They are usually mean. How would that affect wild populations?
This wild, freak male, a dark Amarali, or a light Argentine ( with a short tail), is adventurous by nature, a very aggressive breeder. He travels farther than anyone in his native population, and survives because he is so nasty tempered. Finds a bunch of females at the end of his journey...Barry White music...BAM, a new look. So many possibilities, and not enough "sauce" to ponder them all..
