The Burmese python is one of the largest snakes.
A Creepy Scene
Hey! Lets put him over there! It was
nighttime in rural Florida. Two men hopped
out of a pickup. A large ice chest sat in the
truck bed. One man popped it open. Coiled
inside was a Burmese python dead and
still cold from being kept in a freezer.
Together, the men pulled the reptile from
its cooler.

camouflage into the environment.

The pythons coils loosened a bit, and
its body sagged. One man lugged it to the
roadside and placed it where the other had
pointed. Meanwhile, their fellow scientists
and engineers climbed from their vehicles.
The researchers were there to photograph
the invasive Burmese python.
Ask Questions!
Burmese pythons normally live in Myanmar, which was once
called Burma, and other nearby countries. But now they also live
in Florida. Find Myanmar on a map. How is it similar to Florida?
Why would pythons do well in Florida?
The Burmese python is a threat to wildlife in southern Florida They can hide - photo 7

Florida. They can hide in the water or on land.

Plenty of Pythons
Burmese pythons normally live in southern
Asia. They probably came to the United States
as part of the exotic pet trade.
Think!
The exotic pet trade continues. How would you convince a
friend not to get an exotic pet?

A Burmese pythons eggs hatch in 2 to 3 months.
In the 1970s, python owners in Florida
began releasing their pets. Pythons freed
in the Everglades were lucky. The area is
warm and wet and offers plenty of prey .
Pythons mated and females laid eggs
40, 50, or 60 at a time. Before long,
there were thousands of pythons.
Prey animals were disappearing.
Raccoon, bobcat, and fox populations
have shrunk dramatically. Marsh rabbits
are completely gone.

Find some photos of other snakes. Look at the colors and patterns
on their skin. Which ones have camouflage similar to the python?
Look!
Some Early Efforts
Pythons were wrecking the food web
in the Everglades. The government asked
volunteers to hunt the pythons. Some
people used dogs to track them.
The number of pythons caught tripled after 2017 One goal of the Python Bowl - photo 12

One goal of the Python Bowl was to raise awareness of the
pythons. Why is it important to educate people about invasive
species ?
Make a Guess!
Nothing worked. At best, only a few
hundred snakes were killed each year.
