yeah.. what are we supposed to do with "python, species,genus" or how ever its worded? (incorrectly).
this entire thing is such a joke.. they don't even know what they are trying to ban! :/

If you want to get technical with it, Hog Island boas aren't even their own subspecies (though I think that Boa constrictor taxonomy is in need of a serious revision). They are technically an insular locale of B. c. imperator.
(Hmm, it auto capitalized the species and subspecies for me even though it's incorrect. Just wanted to point out that wasn't my doing).
