The Everglades in Florida are plagued with dozens of invasive species, top among them is the Burmese Python. A pet sold in stores throughout the US, when it gets too big or too old for its owner it typically gets released into the wild. When this happens in Florida, where the Everglades tall grasses are identical to Southeast Asia, the animal thrives, breeding in huge numbers and eating whatever it wants thanks to a complete absence of natural predators. On the heels of a viral video showing a burmese python wrestling and killing an alligator, the director of the South Florida Water Management District launched a program to hunt snakes throughout his district.

Pythons are notoriously hard to locate in the immense stretches of south Florida wetlands where they thrive. They don’t readily enter traps, and their natural camouflage is incredibly well suited to florida. These 4 hunters in 10 years caught only about 500 pythons. There are hundreds of hunters catching them in Florida but there are 30,000 pythons. That seems very difficult.

Possibly, although keep in mind that snakes are not warm-blooded. But there's another tech advance that's being tried with great success: male pythons are now being implanted with microchips that emit tracking signals. When these males are released and tracked, they're often found with females. Recently a couple of these decoys were discovered along with 2 large "mating balls" totalling 11 females.

considering a female python can lay 20-100 eggs per year.... considering theres already a few thousand of them out there... removing a few hundreds of python a year wont make a dent....sadly to say.

Look, if there's already a few thousand of snakes already ...let's say like out of 2000 snakes, only half of that or even 25% are adults, and let's say literally the minimum(2) amount of those 20-100 eggs make it to adulthood and reproduce....we're still talking about an additional 1,000-2,000 of snakes every year....

In English perhaps, these two words have taken the significance they have. However, if you want to be precise, autopsy actually means "seeing/observing by your own means" ( from the Ancient Greek αὐτοψία : αὐτός autos + ὄψις opsis), whereas necropsy means "seeing/observing a dead body" (νεκρός nekros + ὄψις opsis). And in Greece, we use the word νεκροψία nekropsia, whatever the dead body is.

Pythons are now established in Florida and soon to be other states. These control type programs may make people feel better but don't do anything to control their population. Two snakes could easily reestablish all of the ones taken. Best thing to do is try and keep other animals out so they don't wind up becoming invasive species too. It only takes a few of them and some careless or stupid people to create a massive problem.

Money is truly an amazing motivator.
@theskyworrier
@theskyworrier 5 месяцев назад
​​@@chrisbgoodv2178not really. It wouldn't be worth it. They would have to buy a lot of pythons which isnt cheap and then raise them for awhile until they get big enough. They have to be at least 4 feet to even claim the 50 dollar base price. So it really isn't worth it. All that money would go right back to raising and feeding them. Plus its not like anyone can catch pythons and get rewarded. Pretty sure you need to have a permit and be registered with the state of Florida. In the video the guy said that currently they only have 25 contractors working with the state of Florida although that number may have risen recently.
