"Risk Assessment and review of control methods – FWS and NPS are funding a USGS risk assessment project to help define the nature of the threat and develop biological/management profiles for nine large constrictor snakes. The risk assessment will contain information that has broad application to the management of pythons and other large exotic constrictors in the U.S."





How did the Burmese, or even the "big 5" turn into 9?? More information please!!



That coupled with the idea that the USGS is planning on funding yet another "study project" (remember the last one they funded regarding Burms, weather, possible future distribution, and impact?), I can't help but to feel more than a little concerned...
