Yea relocation just doesn't seem like a good answer. They could all be collected, properly treated for internal and external parasites and then sold to buyers all over.
One thing I noticed is they were all smaller then average for a boa even those that looked quite healty. Possibly over what (35 years) with only six animals fueling the genitics they natually went tward smaller body size to accomidate the limited resources of the island. If so breeding them into existing BCI stock may create with some back breeding ect. smaller then average boas.
Who knows but the possibility is interesting. In any event I think the concept of a Cancun line boa is marketable and therefore a partial solution to a pretty bad environmental problem. I would deffinitely take a pair if I had the option, perhaps the money could help the native people of cancun who can't even afford to look a the hotels on thier own island let alone ever stay in one,
