Not true, the Chaco plains covers the extreme northern range, this includes parts of Paraguay. Lowland alluvial plain, south-central South America. An arid lowland, it is bounded by the Andes Mountains to the west and the Paraguay and ParanÃ?Æ?Ã?â??Ã?â? Ã¢â?¬â?¢Ã?Æ?ââ?¬Å¡Ã?â??Ã?¡ rivers to the east; its northern and southern margins, generally considered to be a marshy area in Bolivia and the Salado River in Argentina, respectively, are less well defined. Its area is about 280,000 sq miles.

Does anyone have a something to compare the male adult size to? I know that they can get 20Lbs and 5 ft. But how much of that is tail? How thick are they(e.g., football, soccerball)? I actually just reserved one of these bad boys, and am trying to get an idea of what I am going to dealing with. I t is just hard to really get an idea of what one of these guys is like from looking at the pictures. I have nothing wrong with big animals, I have red tails and those suckers aren't tiny. Any feedback would be great.

Thanks :mrgreen:

I didn't realize that reds could have that much contrast! The only non-baby red I have ever seen in person was a large male at a LLLReptile store, and the colors were fairly muddled.
