Nine large constrictors are very likely to be banned. Here's the list:

1. Reticulated python (Python reticulatus)
2. Northern African python (Python sebae sebae)
3. Southern African python (Python sebae natalensis)
4. Burmese python (Python molurus bivittatus)
5. Green anaconda (Eunectes murinus)
6. Yellow anaconda (Eunectes notaeus)
7. Deschauensee’s anaconda (Eunectes deschauenseei)
8. Beni anaconda (Eunectes beniensis)
9. Boa constrictor sp.

This is the proposed ban list by USGS, USFW and HSUS, for which there was strong support.

For more info. please consult the CITES and Herp Law Forum.
