Release of Wild Rubber Boa

Following receiving this yearling Rubber Boa on September 4th 2016, and after following up with the Conservation Office of BC to get permission to rehabilitate this little guy, I followed up with a veterinarian who unfortunately gave this snake a poor prognosis. The snake had some old scars and refused to eat. I did all I could and manage to get the snake re-hydrated. The rubber boa was released on Oct. 3rd 2016 in a safe location near Jim Smith Lake with the permission of a Conservation Officer in Cranbrook. He was released at the warmest part of the day in a safe location with water nearby. We hope it survived and is doing well and are confident w

e gave it the best chance it had to survive.
