That's the excuse they use when someone points out there are many animals in the Everglades that will eat Burms. Of course, it still makes no sense. Doesn't anyone with half of a brain know that animals that DON'T EXIST in the Everglades cannot eat animals that do exist in the Everglades?





>Aand no egg-laying mammals are in Fl. Is there such thing as an >egg-laying mammal? Is a monotreme a mammal?



Yes, looks like it is. (Just looked it up.) I didn't realize there was a potential problem with pet platypus/platypuses/platypi in Florida.
