Now, we need to know how to attract them into traps filled with
poison. Maybe bait said traps with bunnies?

You would think a cold blooded animal would be hard to see but I guess
this IR stuff is getting that good.
Maybe that will be a good use for some of the surplus UAVs when they hit
the market.
You could orbit a UAV and let them direct the teams on the water. It
would be a lot better than giving them to the cops, which is probably
what will happen. That seems to be where a lot of surplus military
equipment ends up.


I was wondering about cold blooded myself. Another problem I can see, OK
it works great for very large snakes, that could only be pythons, but how
about smaller snakes? I don't know how large pythons have to be before
they become breeders, but even small ones, will eventually become
breeders.

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

I wonder if they could be persuaded to eat Canada Geese? I like your
idea, but bunnies are good eating. No sense in wasting them.

From the number mentioned in the article, eradication would seem
impossible:

"The non-native snakes are running amuck in the Everglades - with a
population estimated at over 100,000 in south Florida."

BTW, did you get my 'thank you' for noticing the rear wheel
mismounting? They fixed it.

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.

Not only the Everglades. Climatically, the USGS has them able to live
from Maryland south, and all the way to California. The Burmese python
is relatively docile. The African rock python is not so docile. I
wonder if it's range is similar?

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?

It would be more useful to have a county on conservatives, who serve no
useful purpose. The geese, pests for sure, are beautiful animals.

You can't even train your DopeArmy recruits properly.
Instill some discipline in them and then worry about the geese.

Make an effort to be sociable, Donnie. 'We' refers to civilized
people, to which you referred in your post.

'Dope Army' is one of your inventions, similar to 'Moto Guzzler' which
apparently has some special meaning to you.
