New Burm video on Fox News

RoyerReptiles Aug 18, 2009 01:30 PM

Hello all,

I was just able to check out a new Burmese Python video on Fox News regarding the problem in the Everglades. It's actually one of the few that I've seen that haven't been full of bad information.

http://www.foxnews.com/video/index.html

It's still very new right now, and should be at the top of the "Latest Video" tab. The title of the video is "Exotic Pet Battle".

I saw something on my local FOX news at noon today about a couple in California that found a 14 foot normal Burm on their property. They showed the snake. A woman was holding it.
Obviously an escape or release, but I'm sure they'll say it hitched a ride on a train or something and has established a family. That's a metaphor for the Dust Bowl days in the 20's and all the Okies that rode the rails to California, in case you missed it. To me it is deja-vue all over again, what with the sunk economy and Global Warming, along with all the hypocrisy, corruption, and moralist prohibition legislation. Same...Same...

I just got a PIJAC Alert email from Marshall Meyers stating he was on FOX News and did a press release, with a link. I'll post it if anyone wants to see it. Think it is the same one.
