Boa Constrictor senses seizure before it happens.
Boa constrictors are pinkish or tan in color, with dark crossbands. Typically, they range in lengths from 20 inches (50 cm) as neonates to 13 feet (3.9 m) as adults. Larger members of the Boidae family have heat-sensitive pits on its head, but this snake has more simple heat-sensitive scales. These snakes are solitary and nocturnal.
