Florida: A Bad Winter for Slithering

Summary:An unseasonably cold winter may have taken care of what python hunters could not. Not one python has been caught since the state started allowing hunters to track them on state-managed lands around the Everglades. The season started March 8 and ends Saturday. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission says cold weather may have killed up to 50 percent of the state’s pythons.
Response: The overpopuation of snakes could be dangerous so the fact that the numbers are dwindiling is a good thing.
