Re: Florida Python
I watched an hour long special about them invading. Only thing I really remember about it was one that had swallowed an alligator that clawed itself out of the python's stomach.

Re: Florida Python
They estimate population to be 10,000 - 100,000. Serious problem!!!! Open hunting season for them at several WMAs down there.

Re: Florida Python
I'm not saying I want to, but I'd pay to watch someone corner a biggun like that and fight it with a sword, axe, or spear....once again my wife says I have issues...
