Rosy boa

Lichanura trivirgata saslowi

The rosy boa is one of the smallest boa snakes. It relies on stalking and ambushing to catch its prey. The boa is most active at night and often spends the day in a rock burrow. When threatened, the rosy boa will curl up into a tight ball to protect its head.
