    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

So i emailed the research station on Cayos Cochinos asking for recent hog island photos but they can't send them due to copyright but they sent me a pdf called Evolutionary Biology and Conservation of the Hog Island Boa Constrictor 2011.pdf , a 270 page thesis of hog isand boas with current data ! below is the email , i put the pdf on a free hosting site so not sure how long it will last. Below is the email they sent me back, and a link to the PDF so please share it. i was also able to attach it to this post . it has some good gentics info in it , but maybe not in the right forums so mods please move if you think it needs to be somewhere else.

Find attach a 2011 PHD thesis about the Hog Island pink boa. There you will find usefull information. Unfortunetly we can not send you pictures of the boas becouse we sign agreement with the scientist about the rights of the pictures and we are not authorized for distribution. Anyway if you come to Honduras you are welcome to visit us and take your own pictures.
