I just saw this posted on another forum.



It's unbelievable. This line is classic- "One map shows where the pythons could live today, an area that expands when scientists use global warming models for 2100." Great, hysteria based on two levels of junk science.



I couldn't stop laughing at the last paragraph:



"If you see one, don't attempt to engage it. Leave the area, note the location and notify the authorities."



Aside from the fact that 99.9999% are more likely to get hit by lightning than seeing a released/escaped Burmese python, the preceding paragraph says, "The Burmese python is not poisonous and not considered a danger to humans." So it's not poisonous and not considered dangerous... but leave the area!!!!!



We need to flood USA Today with letters.



Thanks,

Ed





>>This is not helping our cause of trying to save the reptiles and stop the ban. Now half of america thinks they will be over run or eaten by large pythons.
