when I was 16 I wanted a boa constrictor. So, I got my parents to mail order me a $50 boa. It came in a 2'x2'x2' box and was completely full. I took the box out to the garage, closed all the doors and got the boa out. It was 14' long and almost as big around as a basketball. Must have been 80 lbs. Don't know what exactly happended, but it bit me on the wrist, a quick bite, raking the teeth, then released. Blood was gushing and pumping out of me. The boa stood up, with its head 3 feet off the ground, mouth wide open and hissing/growling. I could see all 3 feet down its throat, which was big enough to put my arm down thru. Right then, my mother came into the garage. I don't think she ever bought me another reptile.
