Mr Hog Island Boa needs a NAME β¦. Any suggestions welcome. This species isnβt commonly found in the pet trade but Iβve given him a new home with our ever growing Zoobidoo Team π His Species is known for being calm and docile largely due to the lack of natural predators on the Hog Islands just off the coast of Honduras. These islands have produced this beautiful species of boa that that is considerably smaller 5-6ft compared to the typical boa size of 8-10 ft. This is largely due to insular dwarfism, a process by which island animal populations become smaller than their mainland relatives. For example, this same type of dwarfism has been observed in species as diverse as sloths, hippos and even elephants. #zoobidoocumbria #animallover #hogislandboa #snakesofinstagram #animaleducation #everydayisalearningday #schools #cumbria
