I know it's old news. People get Burmese Pythons, they get to big, stupid people let them go in the 'glades. They have spread and are starting to mulitply and it's becoming a problem. And then theres that Burmese sniffing dog...yadayadayada. We know that. I have some ?'s for the expeienced Indigo owners, since the case of wild Indigos in the 'glades is also a bit at stake.


1. Since they DO eat other snakes, is the wrong place/time Burmese youngster also in the menu for wild Indigos? Or is it only the other normal 25 Everglades' snakes?

2. I've looked up alot of information on Indigo's before, but I can't remember if they are aquatic or not. Burmese Pythons are sopposed to be semi-aquatic. What about Indy's?

3. Burmese have their own sent, but having a dog myself,no matter how trained, their noses can be curious. Do you think it's possible the dog will accidently sniff out a Indigo or maybe a nasty cottonmouth?
(I'd hate to be that pup.)
