There is no way at all to determine where one boa or another is REALLY from once it is in captivty. Unless of course like you say, you caught and exported it yourself.



Though even IF you got one of each, yourself... you could easily identify one from the other, hence a distinction you can hold onto in your mind... but in reality, neither one is representative of the population as a whole. So you have your suri, and your guyana, and you know wich is wich, and you know their different and can easily describe the differences between the two snakes. The reality is you still have 2 of the same snake, either look could just as easily sprouted up 100, 200, 500 even a thousand miles away (given there are no insurmountable geographic barries in the way).





I see some people got riled up in this thread... all I ever asked for was for those clinging to that belief simply OUTLINE, what it is exactly that we can use to tell them apart.



If no such distinctions exsist and you STILL claim them to be distincitvley differnt... then I have a bridge for sale.
