" but many questions remain that must be addressed before we can conclusively say they cannot survive here," Dorcas said. "

That is one well named scientist.
Job security...more studies, please.

" The researchers noted that some Burmese pythons in other studies had adopted behaviors that would allow them to endure colder temperatures, and that, over time, those snakes could produce more cold-tolerant offspring. Those behaviors included seeking refuge during cold spells. "

Well after they learn to seek shelter, then maybe they can learn to use crosswalks and to use the traffic lights on our roadways. Then I'll give them a shot at survival.
