Do you know, is it too late to eradicate them? Is this just to control
their numbers?


They don't seem to have any natural enemies and the ecology of the
Everglades seems to suit them just fine. All of their snack foods
are protected species and available in large numbers.


My damn fool neighbors get mad whenever the gators eat the Canadian
Geese and call the Fish and wildlife ppl to haul em off. I hate those
geese. We should give homeless people hunting permits and paintball
guns to shoot em down.
Why not have a bounty on the pythons?

Another gun happy Floridian.
Here's a better activity for civilized people...

If we trained enough Canadians to call geese, you reckon they could
keep the friggin' ****ters up there where y'all can love them to
death?
