Today almost 100% of all herps exported are collected along the road to Opoora. You mentioned walking to Guyana. Unless you lived in Opoora that would be practically impossible. The walk would take days. About 85 % of the population lives in Paramiribo and all shipments originate from there. No matter I stand by my statements and have NEVER met anyone including Amerindians who walk back and forth unless they live on the border period! As far as Belem Boas go, check them out as they ARE very different from regular Guyana Shield snakes. Suriname is a beautiful unspoiled country and I have many friends there. Theo Henzen has been a friend for over 30 years. If your relative travels by boat to Belem even from the French Guyana border, God Bless him as thats still a long, long way especially at 75 years old. But I have seen many old people in the tropics do amazing things so I believe you. Do you know the Henzens?......TC
