The restrictions on snake hunting in Fla. are beyond stupid. Catch them live, bring them to a dealer to dispatch them to be processed for their skin.


Again this IS NOT TRUE

Only FWC staff, permit holders and python removal contractors and the South Florida Water Management District can legally transport live Burmese pythons. Everyone else must kill these snakes on site.

Everything I've read so far as hunting says live capture by hand, noose, trap.

As far as transporting them, I'm in error since it is illegal to transport live pythons by vehicle---again, according to what I've read.

Once captured, they can be dispatched by the hunter by destroying what little brain they have either by knife, some other sharp implement or by gun.
