  1. Some species of pythons can swim others are tree dwellers. They are slow-moving snakes usually capable of reaching 1 mph not likely to make it to Cuba.

  2. They have been in South Florida since 1979 and established a breeding population after Hurricane Andrew in 1992. The farthest they are found is on occasion in south Georgia this is after over 40 years to move north but due to freezing temperatures they are not able to do so and they surely will never be able to establish breeding populations outside of Florida where the temperature on average is 72°.

  3. There are 500 invasive species in Florida if you add Wolverines and mongoose there would be 502! Lol.🐍😉

  4. They are an invasive species that are eating all of Florida's wildlife. It's very sad but they have to be killed in a humane way for the sake of the animals who already habitate Florida!

  5. There are seven different ethnic groups in Burma who catch these pythons none of which are Caucasian. There are many different races of exotic pet owners in Florida and throughout the United States. Hurricane Andrew back in 1992 is the main reason that these exotic pets got loose in the wild. The python removal service was established in 2017 and are currently taking applications for agents to assist with the removal and euthanization of Burmese pythons in Florida.

  6. The snakes are brought in alive and then killed and dissected to find out what Wildlife they've been eating also having all the eggs destroyed inside the females is the most important thing.

  7. There are no cottonmouths in Ohio. They're northernmost range is Southeastern Virginia and also Southern Illinois. There are seven different species of harmless water snakes that live in Ohio's lakes and rivers that citizens have been reporting as cottonmouths for years. The Ohio fish and wildlife along with the Ohio herpetology Society have stated that there are no venomous snakes in Ohio other than the Timber, Massasauga rattlesnakes and the Copperheads. The Burmese python that is an invasive species in Florida has been there since 1979 and is mainly in the southern portion of the Everglades National Refuge where they established a breeding population after Hurricane Andrew in 1992. They were found this far back as 1979 in South Florida and they haven't been able to move any further north since then due to freezing temperatures. The only place they can survive is in Florida where the average temperature is 72°. This is a documentary based on speculation not scientific fact.

  11.  @maydaverave  rat snakes are a prolific species of snakes which live throughout the United States. The Eastern indigo snake is protected under federal law Endangered Species Act. It is illegal to capture, kill and have one for the purpose of a pet without obtaining the proper state or federal license to do so. There are no North American species of snakes that can breed with a species from Asia.

  14. The python elimination program was started in 2017. Agents along with professional python Hunters capture and euthanize pythons humanely and the eggs inside of the females are destroyed. Biologist study their contents so they know what type of wildlife they are consuming. The only place where pythons have established a breeding population is in Southern Florida where the temperature is on average 72°. Citizens are allowed to kill pythons or any other invasive animal on their private land as long as it's done in a humane way. Python hunts are held where citizens can purchase a permit to help with the capture and euthanization of pythons in Florida with grand prizes totally $10,000. Pythons come out to bask at Dusk to prepare for their nighttime feeding and professional Hunters and agents normally work until day break with the capture of these snakes.

  15. The python removal service was established in Florida back in 2017 and are currently taking applications for agents to assist in the removal and euthanization of the snakes. Agents are paid up to $17 per hour with bonuses up to $2,500 for the most and largest pythons caught at certain events. Females can carry a clutch of up to 100 eggs inside of them so they must be euthanized and the eggs destroyed. There are seven main ethnic groups in Burma who captured these snakes and sell them on the exotic pet trade none of which are Caucasian. There are many different races of exotic pet owners in Florida and throughout the United States.

  16. They are captured and sold by people who have been making a living on selling animals on the exotic pet trade. They are purchased by many different buyers who then bring them into their country to make a huge profit on the black market. There are more laws and restrictions on bringing these animals into the United States which can result in severe monetary fines and even prison time if these laws are broken without the proper permit to do so.

  17. The python removal service was established in 2017. They are currently taking applications for agents to assist in the capture and euthanization of Burmese pythons in regions of Florida. Agents can make up to $17 an hour with incentives of up to $2,500 for the largest and most caught at certain events. These snakes must be brought in and euthanized and the females clutch of eggs inside of them which can contain as many as 100 must be destroyed.

  19. Pythons have been in the Everglades since 1979. The majority of them escaped during Hurricane Andrew back in 1992 from a warehouse in the Everglades National Refuge. The average temperature in Southern Florida is 72°. They haven't established a breeding population other than South Florida and over 40 years and they aren't going anywhere where there are freezing temperatures. Pythons are native to asia, Africa and Australia not North or South America. This is a documentary based on speculation not scientific fact.

  20. The python removal service was established in 2017 in Florida. Agents can be paid up to $17 an hour depending on the area that they are working. Rewards up to $2,500 are offered on certain events for the largest and most Burmese pythons caught. Burmese pythons must be brought in for euthanization and the female's eggs are destroyed which can be up to 100 in a clutch.

  21. No the only established breeding populations throughout South Florida is the Burmese python. Reticulated pythons are contained to a small area in the Everglades they have not established a breeding population in Florida.

  22. The python elimination program was started in 2017. Agents are paid $17 an hour and can earn up to $2,500 in bonuses for the largest and most amount of pythons captured and euthanized. Annual python hunts are held where citizens can purchase a permit to hunt pythons legally for 10 days and earn cash prizes up to $10,000. Citizens are also allowed to kill pythons 365 days a year on private property as long as it's done in a humane way. Pythons need to be euthanized and dissected by biologists/herpetologist to study their contents to see what kind of wildlife they have been eating along with the eggs inside the females must be destroyed. The breeding populations of pythons is mainly in the southern portion of the Everglades National Refuge which requires official Wildlife agents and professional python Hunters with the proper license to capture and euthanize pythons. The pythons only live in Florida where there is a constant temperature year round of 72° only rarely are they found in southern Georgia and there is no established breeding population in southern Georgia. This is a documentary based on speculation not scientific fact these pythons are not going to be able to live anywhere where there are constant freezing temperatures.

  23. The bulk of the Burmese pythons population in the Florida Everglades Refuge started with Hurricane Andrew in 1992. There was a warehouse holding facility for exotic pets located in the Everglades when Andrew hit and destroyed it releasing the animals Into the Wild. The Burmese pythons established a breeding population around 1995 in South Florida and it has remained in South Florida where the temperature is a yearly average of 72°. There are specially trained agents in Python Hunters who go out and capture these pythons alive and bring them into biologist to have them euthanized in the eggs destroyed inside of them. Citizens are allowed to kill pythons on their private land at any time as long as it's done in a Humane fashion and turned over to a wildlife biologist. They're also the annual python hunts where citizens can purchase a license to participate in catching pythons legally with a permit and a chance to win up to $10,000 in grand prizes. This show is based on speculation not scientific fact.

  24. It is illegal to bring invasive species of animals in the United States without the proper permits to do so. That still doesn't prevent people from hiding them in their luggage and even hiding them on themselves in order to make money on the exotic pet trade. Offenders are subject to strict fines and prison time!

  25. There are an no established breeding populations of Burmese pythons outside of South Florida. You can easily find an escaped pet anywhere in the United States but the chances are it will not survive for long if left out in the wild.

  27.  @ralphcantrell3214  the majority of Burmese pythons are in the Everglades State Wildlife Refuge which requires professionally trained Wildlife agents to capture an euthanize Burmese pythons. Citizens can kill Burmese pythons on private land without a permit or license year round as long as it's done in a humane way. Even for trained Professionals for every python that is captured and euthanized there are estimated 100 to 1,000 that aren't. They have been in Florida since 1979 with the majority of them escaping into the Everglades during Hurricane Andrew in 1992.

  28. The python elimination service was established in 2017. Agents are paid up to $17 an hour and can earn $2,500 bonuses on python hunts. These agents work on the state protected Everglades Wildlife Reserve. Pythons can be humanely killed on private lands and it is encouraged by the Florida Wildlife Commission. Pythons are usually humanely euthanized and the eggs are destroyed inside of the females which can contain as many as 100. You do not have to have a license or a permit to kill snakes on private lands and can do so any time of the year. The Burmese python established breeding population is mainly in South Florida Everglades National Wildlife Refuge.

  30. There are no breeding populations of pythons other than the Everglades National Park in South Florida. The majority of them escaped during Hurricane Andrew in 1992 from a exotic pet warehouse located in the Everglades. You can hardly blame something on a natural disaster! The only place were there capable of living is in Florida where the temperature is a constant 72° year round. This is a documentary based on speculation not scientific fact.

  37. Hurricane Andrew back in 1992 is the main reason these exotic pets got loose in the wild. The only established breeding population of the Burmese python is in South Florida Everglades. You can find released pets anywhere in the United States but they will not survive in the wild due to the habitat and climate.

  38. They haven't survived Winters outside of South Georgia. They are very rarely found there and there are no known established breeding populations outside of South Florida.

  40. Most of them escaped during Hurricane Andrew back in 1992 from pet stores, zoos and even collectors. They've had thirty years to breed and establish populations in the Everglades and could be coming to your town next if you live in the southeast or the Gulf Coast region.
