Re: How would you try and tame this boa?

Putting a towel over a horse's eyes in a fire to calm it down for rescue, or a horse wearing blinkers to keep its attention focused on the path ahead without distraction from potentially startling activities elsewhere are all used in the same way you did with the snake. Nicely done.

Funny you made that comparison, as I've thought that before...that in some ways snakes remind me of working with horses. (which I have done but no longer do) Force works no better on snakes than it does on horses...empathy, patience & communication overcomes panic (& greatly reduces the number of bites or kicks you get, LOL!)
