Well I have "heard" of all the ones that they are catching and "getting rid of" but I haven't seen any on my trips (although it has only been 2 LOL) I know that the rules say that you aren't allowed to take anything especially animals from the state park ,and have been told this even applies to the ones that aren't supposed to be there in the first place,but let me tell you what.The next time I am driving through there (should be in the next couple of weeks) and I see a Burm ANYWHERE in there and looks even half way handle-able(?) it is going in the car with me and coming home.I will tell a STRAIGHT FACED lie to anyone who questions me about finding one whether they are a scared stiff bystander or approach me wearing a badge.They are constantly in the papers and on the news down here about how they are getting out of hand and they want them eradicated from the park but won't let you take one alive,they are however paying small bounties for people who bring in dead ones if they can accurately document where it was caught in the park.Well I say they can't have it both ways....and 30,000 living in the glades?? Are they kidding? I don't honestly think there are that many in the wild in Asia where they are from are there? Where do they come up with these numbers??
