Default Salt water alone unlikely to halt Burmese python invasion

It's time for a bounty on dead Pythons. The money would be the best
spent in years.

There is actually a potential retail market for python skins, selling
them to the Chinese. They use it for some kind of traditional musical
instrument and the demand is devastating native populations in Asia.
The US environmental people are still trying to decide if 100,000 red
necks tromping around the Everglades is going to cause more damage
than the snakes.
These things are really not that easy to see. You may not even know
there is one there until he bites you. The wrap and suffocate thing
comes right after that, pretty fast. The bite is still comparable to a
big dog with backward curved teeth.


Okay...now I understand the redneck bite. What's the snake's bite like?

They have the whole tidewater Virginia and Delmarva peninsula on that
range. These things might even get loose in DC. They could survive
around the steam tunnels in the Federal Triangle area all winter.


Remember when one grabs and starts to constrict you for lunch, unwind it
from the tail. :)

But, I don't know how much cold they can take. Tropical or not.
Knowing they're a snake, probably a lot.

I think this is all new science at this point and we are learning as
we go. I just know there are plenty of snakes north of the Mason Dixon
line and these guys may join them if they can figure out a way to hide
from the cold in the winter. In the summer time they will be right at
home just about anywhere up there and there is plenty for them to eat.
These guys can survive on birds, rabbits and rats but they can also
take down a deer, a calf or a pony.
My Son In Law works for water management in the glades and they find
all sorts of things inside the pythons they kill.


Let me know when he starts finding the little *******s full of golf balls!

You could squeeze them out and re-use them!

You can just wait, They will come out all on their own ;-)
That is why they have those ball washers at the tee.

BTW it is not the little *******s that bother you, it is the big ones.


If you wait for that to happen, you may have to watch out for the
projectiles!
