I didn't get the impression that anyone was upset by your desire to euthanize snakes.
As for the authorities helping, it is the FWC...a Guy saved an 4-5ft alligator from being run over last year on one of our central FL roads. I'm pretty sure he called the authorities (FWC) to help and he ended up with a ticket for handling a protected species.
The Burms may be a nuisance in the Everglades, but the park rangers haven't exactly put out the call for hunters to come take them out. They much prefer that people stick to foot trails and not damage the habitat.
I don't think the "forum" is coming down on you, from my perspective. I just think that others are less enthusiastic about the idea than you are and have shared their concerns. Perhaps it would be a better idea if it were carried out outside of the Everglades National Park?
