106 Burmese pythons captured in Florida...

I agree Mink. But I've been skeptical of the methods used thus far. The hunt is only a month and only in certain areas of the glades. So there are still many areas that are still safe for pythons during the hunt.

Another issue I have is that if you see a python and you don't have a permit to handle them, you can't kill them, capture them, or even touch them to keep them where they are until officials arrive. You'll get fined for handling them, which I think is ridiculous. I would understand getting fined for handling native species, but it would be much more productive to allow people to capture them and bring them in, or wait until officials come to take them. Because even if you report it, there's a solid chance that the snake won't be there by the time officials arrive.
