Again, without valid scientific experimintal data fish and game scientists may consider that even if it is just from April to Sept, these large, captive raised and released pythons are able to survive long enough to impact native populations. I saw a picture on the net that showed a python that had tried to eat an alligator. I have also seen pics of people in Asia who were eaten by large pythons. Real or not you know how it works with hysteria.



I am pretty sure that was the other way around. the Gator was eating the burm, but the burm was not "willing" to be a meal and trying to escape. If we were looking at the same picture there is no way that burm could have gotten its mouth around that gator if by some stroke of luck it could win that fight. It was just too small for prey that big around.
