We have a python hunt to try to thin out our python problem here in Florida.

That's a really awesome program. It's a good thing to get rid of those snakes.

It's a physical impossibility to get rid of them. The best we can hope for is to control them.

I figured that much myself, just never heard anyone else put it like that. They can try too control the population, but like fire ants. They are imbedded, rooting them all out would be impossible.

I tell you what!!! If you are appart of this reptile erratication or relocation. Whatever the term lol, if you can come across a smaller reticulated python, I will make it worth your time!!!!! Ive only seen burmese loose though, not sure. Can anyone clear up exactly which species is striving in florida?
