Like your thinking, so I did a bit of research. What I found out is the species is found from central eastern Jalisco down through north eastern Colimaand, and into central western Michoacan state.Rick West says they "seemed to be more of amontane fossorial species, mainly found in the upper fringes of tropical deciduous forests and the cooler and drier elevations of pine-oak forests." Now, he also says he found B. Klassi up acacia trees and one adult B. klassi female who had made her home living halfway up an acacia tree. Apparently, B. auratum in the wild haven't been hugely researched (or maybe I just couldnt find it). So, I don't think it's entirely unreasonable to guess that although they are not arboreal, that living around trees, they may possibly do a fair bit of climbing when the will takes them, like klassi's have been observed doing. Perhaps one day, someone will find evidence of this in the wild, be it a sling or even an adult, which would be awesome.
