It was about a dog they trained to sniff out a small population of wild Burmese pythons let loose in Florida and how they are reproducing in small numbers.
They hope the dog will be able to track a lot of them down.
They said one snake tried to eat a seven foot alligator...ended up being a draw.
I think the dog is going to meet his match if he is not carefull......looks like a small terrier.
Oh yea, no matter how much this seams like a joke, and if you knew me, you would think it's BS, but I swear it's true......or is it????
LOL

No , I actually believe he was enjoying it.
It was rather cool, and he was just lying there for about an hour in the sun, soaking up the rays.
He is a good snake
