One less HUNGRY snake.

From the news story --
A 13-foot Burmese python recently burst after it apparently tried to swallow a live, six-foot alligator whole, authorities said.

Wasilewski said a 10- or 20-foot python also could pose a risk to an unwary human, especially a child.

He added, however, "I don't think this is an imminent threat. This is not a `Be afraid, be very afraid' situation.'"

Who is the game warden trying to fool? :brow

Rick don't like the beach, there are no curves in Florida, and he ain't camping south of TWO at Suches, GA! :bolt

I had two snakes for pets a while back, and they can be fun, The smaller was a six-foot Columbian Red-Tail Boa, and the larger, a Reticulated Python, was only 17 feet and over 100lb when he died. We often enjoyed going to schools and other events for presentations and talks. And the critters sure liked the attention!
