Beetles would decrease.
Coatis would increase.
Sloths would increase.

When a predator(boa) is removed from a community, the organism that it predates would increases(coatis and sloths). This happens because the organism is no longer eliminated by the predator.
The increases of those organisms will increase the food needs, which will decrease the number of organisms they eat(beetles).
