Not convinced? Let's take a look at the newest chart published on page 129, the first page of Chapter 7, titled “Other Species at Risk of Becoming Established in the United States” in Dorcas, M. E., and J. D. Willson. 2011. Invasive Pythons in the United States. University of Georgia Press, Athens and London.
"SEVEN SPECIES OF PYTHONS AND BOAS THAT ARE EITHER ESTABLISHED OR AT RISK OF BECOMING ESTABLISHED AS INTRODUCED SPECIES IN THE UNITED STATES"
"SPECIES
1) BURMESE PYTHON
2) AFRICAN ROCK PYTHON
3) BOA CONSTRICTOR
4) GREEN ANACONDA
5) YELLOW ANACONDA
6) RETICULATED PYTHON
7) BALL PYTHON"
See how easy it was for these authors to just type the word BALL PYTHON onto the list?
Now they say there is a "Big snake" issue AND a "small snake" issue.
Once these first snakes are listed it is only an add on.
Have you sent in your letter?
