    Re: Dumerils Boas are NOT terrestrial

    I found a Dumerils Boa in the toilet, so they must be aquatic. NOT terrestrial, I was wrong after all.

    Please there should be an age check if someone wants to join this forum. This is really a very very low level. I,m actually surprised that the admins just don,t care. Again, i don,t care personally. Its just shameful for this forum!

    Okay. So you are claiming that Dumerils boas are semi arboreal species, purely based on your boa (which you obviously have not had very long), and a few random YouTube videos? Like others have said, an animal doing something does not make them that thing. If you believe they are semi arboreal due to yours climbing occasionally, than surfers or swimmers must be semiaquatic, right? Do you see your failed logic here? In your original post, you say: "this must be false information". Yes, I'm sure zoologists, wildlife biologists, and taxonomist from around the world have seen your post, and are now going to reclassify the Dumerils GROUND boa. And yes, they are indeed GROUND boas. In their natural habitat, they are almost always found on the GROUND. Did it ever occur to you that maybe in the videos you posted the animals may have been a) placed there, or b) scared, so they climbed into the tree? Now, yes, I was not there so I would not know. Yet neither were you. Have you gone to Madagascar to study these animals? I'm going to assume not. While yes, neither have I, but I'm going to believe every other site and reference I know over an unexperienced so called 'expert' that thinks they know all, when in reality they know nothing, and are only trying to get some attention.

    I was going to apologize for such a strongly worded post, but ya know what? I feel strongly about this, so the tone seems just right.




    Also, you may want to rethink your husbandry as well. People have tried repeatedly to help you, but you refuse to be helped, and are letting your animal's care suffer because of it. Honestly, you need to get off your high horse and let someone tell you what to do for once.

    Look, if you have a Dumeril boa or Madagascar ground boa and you have the space to give them some branches or perch to climb on just do it. They will make use of it and appreciate it. They are not 100% terrestrial. They climb a lot for sure. No need to discuss this point further.
    What about my husbandry? Every thing is ok with it. I know what i,m doing. There is more than one way to do things. But if you are referring to something in particular i will be happy to hear it.

    I'm suspecting some kind of *social/mental disorder. It explains everything, even the other threads. Maybe it is best, just to leave alone the belligerent debate, and the baited opening posts.

    Sorry buddy. No offense, just wondering why you interact with everyone on the forum in such a dysfunctional manner.
    You could try accepting others’ points of view, and having a nice discussion, versus a heated, belligerent debate with everyone against you. It seems to be a theme for you.
