...burms are cool.
I figured I'd contribute something more than debate so here are some pics. Hope you enjoy.
A burm in situ crossing the road in ENP. Photo by Jason Folt.

One of our former telemetered snakes that we needed to recapture in order to change the transmitters before the batteries died.

Python spotted from helicopter. See it?

From a different angle and cropped. See it now?

When we landed and walked into the tree island we found it retreating down this hole:

But we got there just in time to capture/remove it...

Nesting python. In situ.

A better shot...

After shooting a scene catching pythons from the PBS/BBC shows...

And here's a boa from the FL population. I think they're pretty nice looking.

And a younger one:

Under a building on a tree island in the everglades...

...we found this:

Python eggs:

And here's another non-burm, but a close relative (in situ, dead):

And after being extracted:

Would have been a nice-looking animal:

And another Python species. This one was found in Broward county, FL:

Anyway, hope you enjoyed the pics.
Mike
