I subscribe to Python Cowboy on YT. He has a boat where you, your friend, family SHOOT the iguanas on the FL waterways. The iguanas are as problematic as the pythons.

When I was in Costa Rica everyone liked them, just part of the scenery. They like footbridges. We’d just step over them.

—”Looks like there’s a LOT of ribs there.”

The closer the bone, the sweeter the meat.

Wait until Brandon and the globalists get done with this country-there won’t be a stick of firewood or a gram of animal protein to be found anywhere. When Stalin was getting rid of the kulaks, families were eating their dead children.

They are getting out of hand. The other day I drove by a golf course and there had to be 20 of them sunning in a spot.
