What happens when there are no more rabbits to eat?

Do the pythons move on and try to go for dogs, kids, horses, adults?

Or will they die out from lack of food? Eat each other?

Or expand their territory?


That is a good question and I wish I had asked it during my recent Everglades tour, where they told us pythons had wiped out — among other species — all Everglades otters. Now that is sad. Cute, playful otters versus long scaly humongous snakes. What a bad trade!

Rabbits-— I lived in Naples, FL for 30 years, 30 years ago and certain times of the year when you crossed Alligator Alley there were so many dead( and alive ) rabbits on the road bed when you got closer to Andytown it was almost like driving on a wet/icy road there were so many crushed rabbits. Seems like there would have to be wall to wall snakes to consume them. Its been 30 years so possible times have changed.
