You sure? What species do you think it is?


Positive. It's always on the news, they even have guys that are paid by Broward and Dade County to go out and catch them. There is a major problem with them in the Everglades eating gators/fish/birds/etc. South Fl also has a big problem with Snakehead fish wiping out indeginous species.

This snake looks like an Anaconda to me but I'm nothing close to an expert. It could be a Boa but it would be under fed if it is.

There are at least two species of python there, but the snake in the pic is not a python nor is it a boa. If real, it's an Elapid. None of those are currently loose in Fl.
