The common boa (Boa constrictor) is a large snake, reaching more than 3 metres long. It is widely distributed in South America and recognised as an opportunistic and generalist predator, feeding on invertebrates, fish, birds, mammals, amphibians and lizards, primarily using constriction to subdue its prey (Henderson et al., 1995; Quick et al., 2005; Pizzato et al., 2009; Marques et al., 2019). Herein, we present the first record of ophiophagy and necrophagy for a common boa that ingested a dead Patagonian green racer Pseudablabes (Philodryas) patagoniensis (Girard, 1858).
