What a load of unconscionable crap! So many false statements, innuendo, rumor. They did say the United States imported 99,000 "Pythons" in the last ten years. I'm sure that 90% of that figure was West African Ball Pythons, the Corn Snake of the Python Clan - harmless, small, non-invasive, non-threatening, non-injurious. They did show some "Python Hunters" capture a 9 ft. specimen from under a boardwalk on the first day of the hunt. They did show the USGS Global Warming Invasion Map and cited it as a foregone conclusion. They did say there were an estimated 150,000 pythons in Florida. They did say Florida asked the Federal Government to ban the the importation of Pythons into the U.S. three years ago, as they foresaw a crisis brewing. They did say the U.S. Government replied that they would study it. They mentioned the attack of the child by the albino Burmese. Senator Nelson was shown saying it's only a matter of time before an unsuspecting tourist is attacked in the Everglades. And on and on. I believe the report was by Cary Sanders. Everyone should view this video. I will try to get the link.
