There were very few, if any, predators on Guam for the Brown tree snakes, and, as you mentioned, an island is far different than Florida. That was the whole premise of the book I mentioned.

I noticed Rodda's report keeps grouping both subs of Burmese as having the same range, when the ability of Indians to live in cooler climes is well know, versus the normal Burms. Anyone want to wager on the outcome of the test in the cold weather?
