Did you know:

…The Common Northern Boa is nonvenous constrictor also known as Northern Boa, Columbian Boa or Common Boa.

…It looks nearly identical to the Red-Tailed Boa (Boa Constrictor) and is often mistaken for it. You can set it apart as the Common Northern Boa has fewer dorsal and anal scales, while th Red-Tailed Boa also has a darker end of the tail, leaning towards a red color.

…Because it is such a wide-ranging Snake, it’s appearance can differ greatly depending on the specific locality.

…They are commonly kept in captivity, and can be bred in a variety of different colors.
