If I was one of those guys in FL, I would never go out alone looking for those snakes + I would have a Smith Wesson Governor or Taurus Judge strapped to my side. A .410 to the head should quiet those monsters down.

I wonder if anyone has started running thermal drones to locate them




On an episode of "Swamp People-Serpent Invasion" Zack and Bruce were in the Everglades using hand-held thermal imaging to locate pythons at night.

The snakes lay in the sun during the day to absorb heat and hunt at night and they show up on the screen making them easier to find at night.

that they're using GPS collars on possums and raccoons to find pythons in the Everglades. Those two have gotten pretty good at sniffing out python nests and they tend to return to them night after night. Find the nest, find the eggs, find the snake. Decent plan.


So coons and possums eat python eggs? That at least helps some

1) kill snake
2) pull snake from grass....or not.

Definitely something we would have did when we were teenagers. That looks like fun.

That big snake looked for a few seconds like it was going to wrap itself around that young guy.

I am not watching that video. I don't want to have nightmares about snakes.

Not exactly sure how that dude was able to move his massive balls out the way in order to successfully jump onto that snake

Dude on this way to wrangle pythons:

Yes, that is what I saw too. It could have been a real sad story had that young guy been alone.
