Don’t get scared by their highly developed front teeth, as the Emerald Tree Boa (Corallus caninus) is non-venomous and would only bite its ideal prey. The snake is common in South America’s rainforest, belongs to the family Boidae, and gives birth to live offspring, usually a litter of 6-14. The Emerald Tree Boa has an overall length between 4’-6’ (1.22-1.83 m), body width of roughly 1.8”-2.75” (4.5-7 cm), and weight from .9-2 lb (.4-.9 kg). The typical lifespan of the Emerald Tree Boa is between 15-20 years.
