How big are the teeth?
Chondros, for their size, do have larger teeth than many other species, but nothing when compared to the Emerald Tree Boa. The size of their teeth has been attributed to a number of things, one being that they are primarily bird eaters and need the larger teeth to puncture the feathers to reach tissue and hold onto the prey. Its since been proven that birds make up a small majority of their diet so the more likely explanation is that obviously they don t get the same opportunities as terrestrial species (or the time) so when an opportunity of food comes along it better capitalize on it so it can survive.
