An arboreal boa from South America. Rich color variation including garden phase and colored phases.
The Amazon tree boa (Corallus hortulanus) is an arboreal boa native to the tropical rainforests of South America, particularly the Amazon basin. Adults typically reach 120–180 cm in total length and display an exceptional degree of color polymorphism, ranging from uniform grey or brown individuals (garden phase) to vivid orange, red, or yellow specimens (colored phase). The species is fully arboreal, resting in characteristic coiled postures on branches. It is nocturnal and feeds primarily on small mammals, birds, and lizards. Amazon tree boas can be defensive and prone to biting, particularly as juveniles, making them better suited to experienced keepers. In captivity they require tall enclosures with secure horizontal perches, warm temperatures of 26–30°C, and humidity of 70–80%.
