The pet trade is a huge problem, but we can’t leave out natural disasters. When Hurricane Andrew went through in 1992 it blew the roof off a python breeding facility and many of the pythons escaped.

You missed perhaps the most puzzling invasive species- Florida Man. My understanding is it was brought to Florida in the early NASCAR epoch. Finding plenty of prey to hold its beer it has reproduced astonishingly fast.
I understand these snakes dont belong here and need to be dealt with but would their be a way to ship them to the country were they belong back in Asia.
@Tommy Worles you run the risk of introducing a pathogen that could wipe out alot of animals. Hence why the animals in exotic pet trade that are almost wiped out in the wild could not reintroduce into the wild.
Is it possible for one person to earn a living solely off of hunting invasive species in South Florida? Just wondering. I'm considering a career change. Thanks!
Bufo marinus, cane toad or licking toad, Keep your teenagers and dogs away. Psychoactive properties. All the same thing I was born in western Broward county in the late 1950's they where there was long as I remember.
I can't understand why anyone would want a huge Burmese python or reticulated python for a pet anyway when you could just have a ball python that stays 5 feet or smaller. Huge pythons cost a fortune to feed, house and keep warm enough. Plus they can be very dangerous. I don't see anything wrong with having snakes for pets because I keep snakes but there needs to be limits on the size of the snake you are legally allowed to keep. Small pythons like ball pythons would have a much more difficult time becoming an invasive species if someone released them. That's because even an exceptionally large ball python of about 6 feet can still be eaten by native predators. Ball pythons also don't get large enough to be a threat to most native animals. They can't wipe out the raccoons, opossums or foxes. They mostly only eat rats and mice. Indigo snakes, kingsnakes, water moccasins, snapping turtles, raccoons and alligators could all kill and eat any escaped ball python that they find. Burmese pythons, reticulated pythons and anacondas all get much too large for most native predators to be able to kill.
I personally don't understand why anyone would want a snake of any species as a pet. They're boring. The only time it's cool to watch them is when they're eating. Other than that, they just lie there like a pile of dog poop.
If they are invasive they need to be destroyed. These stupid people go on vacation and see shit like plants that they say " hey I want that in my mulch bed in state college Pennsylvanian" or some other liberal place. So then they bring seeds here and it spreads like wildfire and drowns out the growth for our native trees and plants. Same with snakes, same with carp and snake head fish, same with murder hornets that threaten to destroy the natural pollination of our native trees and plants carried out by our native honey bees, wasp, and hornets. It goes way beyond any idealism of wasting of a damn snake because an ecosystem is as fragile as you are
Problem is that a lot of "those in need" refuse to eat wild animals. Look at the work Ted Nugent was trying to accomplish with feral hogs... The groups he was donating them to refused to take them because people didn't like the taste. There is too much of a sense of entitlement in this country.
@@TaxThisDi_k, in addition government gets involved and won’t allow wild game to be fed to the homeless because it won’t meet some arbitrary imposed restrictions. Notice how they were only “catching” the pythons instead of killing them???
Yes they are captured and turned into biologist euthanize and dissect them to remove the females eggs. They are trapped by professional python hunters and Agents from the Florida Wildlife python elimination program. Python annual roundups are held in which citizens can purchase a permit to capture and have pythons euthanized and w i n prices up to $10,000. Citizens can have pythons captured euthanize and the eggs destroyed on private land 365 days a year without a permit.
@@kthistle49 So they were never considered invasive but rather problematic as they were repopulating at an uncontrollable rate and scourging the Everglades ecosystem

Five or six years ago, there was a tv show with Miami-Dade firefighters who would go out on calls to catch and I assume kill Pythons and other constrictors. At the time, it was thought that the snakes had become too big for their owners and they just turned them loose. In the last couple of years there was a show called Guardians of the Glades. It was a small group of hillbilly bounty hunters who searched for as many invasive pythons as possible. They were paid by the foot, they got paid for the skin after they had used salt on the skin before taking it to be tanned for boots, etc., they got paid for the meat that could be used for human consumption, and there was very little that went to waste. I don't know what has happened to these programs, but those pythons were accidentally released from a snake facility during hurricane Katrina and they found ways to adapt and even thrive in the Glades. They have moved farther north than the Everglades according to what I last read.

Most of the invasive reptiles are much further south but they are slowly working their way up north. And even in South Florida where they are abundant they can be very illusive. I live just a couple of minutes from the Everglades and have been spending lots of time hiking in there for many years yet I've only seen one python and one tegu. As for the coyotes, they were not introduced, they migrated east on their own.
if invasive and dangerous to environment, then destruction is the best and most viable response. Banning them outright is the only answer combined with destruction upon discovery, regardless of pet, display or wild.
Can Invasive species apply to Nationalities too? Because everything that implies says a foreigner can change the face of a local culture. The Cubans, Haitians, Jamaicans, Chinese etc. has change the heck out of Florida and the Bahamas. What did the Lion fish called the coral reef? xenophobic.
Nick, don't be a jerky example...you should not have a snake that size around your neck for ANY length of time for ANY reason, even with spotters. If he got excited and constricted, spotters would have to injur him or even kill him to save your life. Big snakes DO NOT BELONG AROUND YOUR NECK EVER.

@@nerblebun Fine. Your numbers were generated from one limited study. The largest number of pythons collected was just in the 200s, collected state wide and in the period of 1 year. This indicates (by simple math and correlation) that the python population in Florida is dramatically over inflated. To impact a species (by a spurious study that simply states "we saw no racoons or foxes"...no actual counts by wildlife biologists) the numbers of pythons would need to be so high that the average citizen would see pythons daily. It's a simple matter of counting pythons in a particular area and calculating the average population number for a given area. The numbers simply do not add up.
