I live in Florida . Which means nothing as no expert on pythons lol.
However your right they have been finding them since the 70s from what I understand when developments began to encircle Glades park is when sighting began.
Its possible like a few here have said that they have been there for decades or more.
They arent native but decades ago you could buy anything at all you wanted in Florida .
I recall seeing lion cubs for sale in late 70s for $200 each and lots of other exotics . No permit required .
