Ball pythons an Invasive species?

EricWI Dec 29, 2011 04:15 AM

Here is an excerpt from the review article:

“The last chapter in the book is titled “Other Species at Risk
of Becoming Established in the United States.” Seven species
are briefly discussed; six are species that were featured in Reed
and Rodda (2009), and are included in the proposed action of
the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to list ten species of great
constrictors on the Injurious Wildlife List. The seventh is Python regius, ball pythons, one of the most popular captive
snakes in the world with more than a million animals in this
country. The authors warn that this species is likely to become
invasive.
