That my friend is a TRUE LETICIA COLOMBIAN.

Not one of these fakes that have been promoted over the years and yes, it does look like a Peruvian and the question is why??????

Also, the other one is a Southern Suriname, with Peruvian thin saddles.

The one on the grass, is also a Southern Suriname, with Peruvian Markings and why is that??????

The answer is simple.

Why do all of these Boas share allot of similarities, but none of them look like Northern Guyanas or Surinames??

It is Geography and Geography only, that truly seperates outward characteristics in B.C.C. Locales.

There is Highland or Guyana Shield B.C.C. " take a look at how huge the Shield is on a map " and there is Lowland Basin B.C.C.

In my true and honest belief, the same applies to Boas from Highlands and Lowlands as compared to Northern Emerald Tree Boas from the Highlands compared to the striped low land Basin types.

Now, there can be some subtle and slightly extreme differences within both types of B.C.C. from these two main areas, but typically, you will not find a Highland Boa that looks like a low land Boa.

Boas, from Lowland Peru " Pucallpa and Iquitos ect " look like Boas from Leticia and very similar to Boas I have seen from low land Basin Venezuela and Brazil.

Now, there are variances within all of those populations, but they all tend to keep the same variances.

However, lowland Basin Boas, hardly ever " if ever " look anything like what is found in B.C.C. on the Guyana Shield.

Look at Emerald Tree Boas and there is no reason that the same does not apply to B.C.C.

It is just to obvious as most things in life.

I could go into allot more detail, but do not have time right now and I tend to ramble my words when typing.

However, I would love to discuss this further with you sometime and it not be over the key board and I could make more sense out of it.

Take Care, John J
