A nice combination of Valentine’s and Chinese New Year themes. (We are entering the year of the snake.)

Hear about the python hunt in the Everglades?
As many as 1500 people went out and caught 50 pythons.

The snake didn’t give his sweetie an apple?

Hadn’t heard of it, but I’m glad they thinned them out some.

Wasn’t a drop in the bucket. Too little, too late. I suspect that the real reason
was that each of those hunters had to pay a ‘fee’ to try to rid the Everglades
of this very serious problem. We’re
past the point of no return. We’re stuck with them now, and all the indigenous
species will become extinct.

Better than the Australian Army’s war on the emus.
Or the Bloom County great snake hunt.

BTW, it IS a very serious problem BUT the general rumor is its because pet snake owners dump their snakes in the everglades when the snakes get too big is simply not true. Durring some of the major coastal storms of the last 15 years large collections of them held by breeders & sellers and pet importors escaped. After all, if you were a lazy, irresponsible snake owner would you drive hundreds (thousands) of miles to dump a snake?
I was enlightened to this by one of the top enviromentalists in Florida who is involved with trying to curtail this very serious problem. And no, they did not charge a fee to the hunters. The snakes are VERY difficult to find in that environment.

I’m absolutely positive that the hunters had to pay a fee. I live in Sarasota, Florida and there was quite extensive coverage in our Sarasota Herald-Tribune. I didn’t bookmark any of the reports on the hunt, but I remember the fact that they DID have to pay a fee was definitely reported.
