Some highlights from this article:

Love this line...
>>>The giant snakes are slithering from Florida toward the Bay Area, very slowly to be sure, but inexorably. And they can strangle and eat an entire alligator.
All those alligators in SF Bay better watch out!

And this...
>>>Another python made it as far as Vero Beach, Fla., on the Atlantic coast. Vero Beach is the spring training site for the Los Angeles Dodgers, but the team has not reported any casualties,

And my favorite...
>>>At 20 miles a month, a determined Burmese python from Florida could arrive in San Francisco as early as August 2020.

Another great line...
>>> As for other potential prey, human beings - like rodents, beavers and deer - are mammals, government scientists confirmed.
So, it's official. The pythons plan to take over the southern US and eat us all
