Being a live bearer does guarantee a certain degree of competitive advantage over an egg layer like a woma = greater chance of survival of a reproductive population.
i should of mentioned that i was basing my thing with the woma sizes on the more commonly kept localities , so boordaries tanami wa etc, from what ive gathered only the SA locale (which doesn't seem to really be all that commonly kept for some reason) really gets to the 2+ size , but ill happily be told otherwise thereI'm not arguing with you, just offering a different opinion. It depends on the species of boas, but realistically they are going to prey on the same mammalian food items. Womas from certain localities are capable of reaching very large sizes (rivalling BHP's). All as I was really getting at anyway is that exotic pythons/boas would do no more harm then a snake from out of that bioregion.
The introduction of exotic disease is often brought up too. The majority of these exotic species are probably being bred here and have been for many generations.

Pretty sure a boa of that size can kill and eat a much larger prey than any woma

Poor fella, I think he's a columbian RTB? :? It makes you wonder how many of these are actually illegally kept. I hate to say this, but I'm glad he got run over....if he/she mated with an aussie species who knows what would happen....could wipe out some native easily becuas of the size...
Everyone says that exotics are everywhere here. I've never seen or been offered one, and although I don't want to keep any exotics because I love aussie pythons too much, it would be kind of awesome to see someone's exotic collection and get to play with them without having to go overseas.
I believe the person who ran this snake over probably wasn't one educated on species. They probably thought "Oh crap! A snake! A BIG SNAKE!" And their first reaction was to run it over. Don't ask me why people are so cruel like this
do they even make rope that thickI doubt when driving anyone has time to process whats about to move infront of their car, I know i try to avoid hitting anything in mine just because of the mess... More then likely didnt recognize the long stretched out object and probably even could of thought it to be a peice of rope.
