Answer:


Not a very good idea because Boa is a genus and Boidae is a family; it will mess up the whole sceme of things CMonkey111 22:38, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Question from 138.25.2.22

Here is a link to a page with a picture of a snake eating a pig: http://www.kinshi.com.ar/posteos/cerdo_serpiente.html . Can someone tell me what happens to the bones? (posted to article by 138.25.2.22, later moved here)

In a healthy boa, the hydrochloric acid in the snake's stomach should dissolve everything, including the bones. Disease can affect HCl levels, which means a sick boa may vomit up the undigestable bits, or pass bone fragments in its stool. -- Hadal 05:51, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Link to "Dominican"

As I was fixing links I noticed this one. It properly redirects to Dominica and not Dominican Republic per this site. Just a note. Dekimasu 10:58, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
