Re: New Sunset Indian Sand Boa

Yup. They are too docile for their own good. According to Wikipedia:

"Red sand boas have many superstitious beliefs attributed to them because of their double-headed appearance, such as bringing good luck, curing AIDS, etc. Such blind faith has resulted in endangering the species, and in illegal trade in India, despite being a protected species under the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972, of India.[6]"

They are also becoming more popular pets in the U.S. So make sure you get CBB eryx johniis.
