That however is NOT whats being said. Are these snakes injurious at all. A predator's population is controlled completely by the prey base that exist. I can't see how they've been here long enough to declare them injurious. Are they injurious by the fact that their here or is there some specific animal or animals that are declining because of the snakes? Why was it implied that P. sebae might produce a SUPER SNAKE when crossed with a Burmese? It's been tried in captivity with little success and ALL progeny to date are sterile. Why are fearmongering statements like that handed to the press as a matter of course?
