Boa constrictors have unique heat-sensing pits and scales on their faces that allow them to detect prey when they hunt at night. They're carnivores but aren't exactly picky with their dietary choices. Boas eat rodents, monkeys, birds, wild pigs, mice, lizards, amphibians and even bats.

Answer:

The head of the boa constrictor is long and triangular, with dark streaks from the eyes to the back of the jaw and another dark streak along the top. The basic coloration is deep brown-and-black markings—often in the shape of triangles, ovals, and joined ovals—against a pale brown-and-gray background.
