I thought from what I saw that it looked kind of like a solomon island boa. But I may be way off base.

Anyone else with any input?

Well I guess it wouldn't have been a solomon island boa. I just now looked to see where the solomon islands are. Impossible for it to have been one of them. Oh well, so much for my guess.

I agree with you, but I am not well versed on boas at all. I didn't see it after that initial shot. Hope it's still ok.

Aren't they on the Pearl Islands of Panama? I only remember that much of the show. If it was a native animal, then it's probably some insular panamanian boa.

Because of the Pearl Island locality it would HAVE to be the very rare and almost extinct Boa C. Sabogae. It was definitely a Boa constrictor of some sorts anyways. Cute lil' feller. I hope he "survived".
