"...this type of snake is not native to the area."

It will be soon - and not b/c of this pet snake, but b/c the pythons will adapt and move up to slightly colder temperatures.

The only thing they can't stand is sub freezing temperatures. I'd bet that their tolerance for that is increasing just a little bit each year.

A wildlife ranger guy/neighbor tells me the only thing that cures this is sub 32 degrees in Miami for almost a week solid. We may be waiting for that for a long time.

There are many problems with DuPage County and cold weather, but large snakes are not one of them!

I have a couple of nice snow blowers and no large snakes!
Such a deal.
