That was 200 panthers, not deer.

Yes, some pythons were released directly by their owners into the swamps west and north of Miami. The biggest release was a “exotic animal pet store” that was destroyed by a hurricane crossing Homestead FL south of Miami. It destroyed the store, and several dozens of fertile pythons were released directly into the Everglades.
When stretched out near a county road, they resemble telephone poles.

I remember that - I have a brother in FLorida so we talked about that.

I am not in favor of exotic pets of any kind .

Another reason to be happy I live in Maine!

I’m in Pa so I’m with you on being out of that loop!

Wow...what a find! That snake would make meals for “Naked and Afraid,” for a couple of weeks. Make them strong for getting to their take out point.

chicken snake (Pantherophis spiloides). Not only is it the best snake in the world (bar none!), it's simply one of the greatest pets there is!

HUH?

Do they fetch the paper in the morning? Do they cuddle up with you on the couch during your afternoon nap?

I don't know bro but I can't wrap my mind around any snake being any greatest pet......Not to say you're wrong, but that's just me.

That’s an unpleasant start to the day.
