According to a U.S. Geological Survey report released Tuesday, nonnative snakes like the Burmese python could slither their way north from the warm, humid conditions of South Florida.

The big snakes threaten native species and ecosystems because they mature and reproduce quickly, travel long distances and can eat almost anything in fur, feathers or scales, experts say.

The number of invasive pythons in South Florida and throughout Everglades National Park has exploded in the past decade to potentially tens of thousands, though wildlife officials aren't sure exactly how many are out there.

Scientists believe pet owners have freed their snakes into the wild once they became too big to keep. They also think some Burmese pythons may have escaped in 1992 from pet shops battered by Hurricane Andrew and have been reproducing ever since

Enough is enough! I have had it with these motherfucking snakes in this motherfucking country.

America has an insane legislation that allows people to raise wild animals as pets.

Many of them not even natives of North America.

Heck, yeah, Jose, you are 100% right!

We can breed and raise rightwing loonies, and look where that has got us!!!

Worse yet the people in charge of animal control don't want to control them. In fact, they are doing their best to ensure that the Burmese python population will grow and spread.
