As Promised...Anatomical view of a dissected boa
This is a juvenile female colombian boa that I took in on rescue last year. She was bought by a teenage girl on impulse and her Dad would not let her bring her inside the house so she attempted to keep the snake in a rubbermaid tote inside her car in an unheated garage. By the time I got her she had a horrible RI. I did all I could but she died anyway. Anyway, that is the story on the snake. Maybe her death will help to educate others.

Very cool, I was just looking for more information on the anatomy of snakes in general. It would be cool if we could develop a virtual dissection, like the one at www.froguts.com.

Jules, an excellent job of dissection, impressive. And by the looks of it, all the right tools on hand as well.
I stickied this post, a spectacular job. While sad that the animal died, at least it can be used to further everyone's knowledge.

I've personally saved the pics onto my HD. I think this is very important to learn if you want to go pro with snakes. Awesome job, simply suberb [img]modules/Forum/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
