"The albino Burmese python now will be used in swamp training at ranger camp, said Elsie Jackson, public affairs with Fort Benning.
Jackson said the snake is among many reptiles used during the swamp training. Rangers must recognize venomous snakes versus harmless snakes and continue in their mission as part of the training. "

Apparently they must have needed an albino python so they could train rangers to distinguish it from all of the albino EDB's they must encounter down there.
