The boa constrictor is a large, non-venomous snake native to Central and South America. It has a robust body, patterned brown scales, and can grow up to 3 meters in length. The boa constrictor is a constrictor, using its powerful muscles to wrap around and suffocate prey such as mammals, birds, and reptiles.

As an important predator in its habitat, it helps control populations of small mammals and birds. Although generally widespread, the species faces threats from habitat loss and illegal pet trade.
