Boa Constrictor

Boa Constrictors do not chew their food. They swallow their food whole. They love to eat big and small animals. First it grabs its pray with its jaws. Then it uses its body to wrap around its prey. Once the prey has stopped breathing, the Boa finishes his meal. Usually, the Boa Constrictor swallow his meal head first. This one is resting right now. Did you know that a Boa Constrictor Snake could live off of his meal for months if the meal is large enough?
