I read the captions under the maps. The one on the left says "Areas of the continental United States with climate matching that of the pythons' native range in Asia. USGS image.", and it
includes parts of NC, VA and MD.

The one on the right says "Projected climate in the continental United States in the year 2100, based on global warming models, that matches climate in the pythons' native range in Asia. USGS image."

Why don't you take another look?

Also, feel free to address my other questions. You made the claim that local wildlife would be "decimated". Do you have any evidence to back up this claim?

Thanks,
Ed
