Boa Rough Scaled Sand behavior

The Rough Scaled Sand Boa is a moderately small, burrowing snake from the Indian subcontinent.

The hermit of the snake world, the Rough Scaled Sand Boa spends most of its time burrowed into the soil in which it lives. When hunting, they remain underground, allowing only their eyes and nostrils to venture to the surface. When unsuspecting prey ventures near, they seize the animal and kill it by constriction. In the wild, the Rough Scaled Sand Boa feeds primarily on small rodents and lizards. In very dry or very cold weather, the Rough Scaled Sand Boa often becomes dormant. Some specimens of Rough Scaled Boas are quite aggressive, although most snakes are generally docile if handled correctly and frequently.
