Amazon Tree Boa

An Amazon tree boa (Corallus hortulanus) hangs motionless in a tree waiting for prey. It extends instantly like a spring when a luckless rodent, amphibian or reptile passes beneath it. It is one of the smaller but more beautiful species of boa, growing to at most 2m in length, and is found throughout Amazon regions.
