I thought I saw somewhere that the radio data on a few pythons had them moving in a spyro-graph type flower pattern? Basically covering the area within a circular area. Maybe that was just the area around the tree island or something. I also think a python could move over an exceptional distance quite easily swimming down a canal. I also would think the really big ones would tend to be far more sedentary and command a tree island habitat more than a juvenile or young python that would probably have an easier time hauling their considerably less bulky selves through the wet lands. I would also love to compare the densities of the Indigo snakes, which are federally protected as being rare, I guess, with something like a yellow rat snake in the agricultural areas along with the pythons to get some sort of comparative to the density of the invader. Is there a link to that somewhere?
