What Am I

HyperToViper Nov 06, 2008 03:05 AM

Hello everyone,

I know it is helpful to know where the snake comes from, however I do not know much information about this snake because I rescued it from a guy who was going to kill it. It was his son's and his son passed away. He told me it was a African Rock Python but after seeing and owning it I do not believe that to be true at all.

All I know is that it is very aggressive, and it is roughly 6' long. I've included a few external links to other angles. If you require anymore information I can try my best.

Thanks in advance.

Not that it is necessary, but I am confirming Tom's ID - Amazon Tree Boa.

Although they aren't "pets" they do make very interesting captives. There are some good care tips at http://www.amazontreeboa.org/
