#Everglades Python Conservation Efforts

Invasive Burmese python swallowing a blue heron in Florida. The Florida Everglades have been dealing with the growing threat of invasive species like Burmese pythons for some time now. The pythons are taking over the land and ultimately killing so many of the native species. This growing problem is of major concern for the preservation efforts of the historic wetlands. . . . .

Removing a nest like this prevents an entire generation of Invasive Species from entering our ecosystem! As incredible as these snakes are, the environmental damage that they do to our Everglades is absolutely devastating #python #burmesepython #burm #burmese #snake #foryou #fyp #fypシ #explore #explorepage #foryoupage #everglades #florida #floridaman #nature #wildlife #invasivespecies #invasive #reels #nest #eggs

Gator vs Python In the wetlands of the Everglades, the invasive Burmese python and the native American alligator occasionally encounter one another. Wildlife researchers have documented several dramatic outcomes. In some cases, large pythons have killed young alligators by constriction. In other cases, adult alligators have attacked and eaten the snakes. One famous 2005 incident involved a python that burst open after swallowing a large alligator in the Everglades. These encounters illustrate how two apex predators compete in the same ecosystem. #crocodile #alligator #reptiles #wildlife #shock

how many eggs do you think this 16’7” python had in her clutch? Leave your answer in the comments ⬇️ We always love guessing before we count 🐍🥚 #invasivespecies #protectwhatyoulove #everglades

A python was found inside a household closet after entering the home in pursuit of prey. In parts of Australia, snakes regularly move through suburban and urban areas, especially when food sources such as possums are present. Enclosed indoor spaces can provide warmth, cover, and a temporary sense of security for a hunting snake. Australia’s native wildlife often overlaps with human environments. Pythons are non venomous constrictors that follow scent trails and movement, not buildings or property lines. When prey enters roof cavities or wall spaces, snakes may follow without distinction between indoor and outdoor territory. After feeding, the snake was safely removed by professionals and relocated to nearby bushland. This approach reduces risk to residents while allowing the animal to continue its natural behavior elsewhere. Situations like this highlight how wildlife movement is driven by opportunity rather than intent, even in highly developed areas.

As a scientist doing research in the Everglades, I rarely came across invasive reptiles. However, when I do, I'm always fascinated by them. I briefly explained how iguanas and Cuban knight anoles negatively impact the environment. These lizards may outcompete other native species for food or their habitats. Understanding them plays a key role in protecting native wildlife and the ecosystem. #scientist #invasivespecies #everglades #reptiles #lizard

431 PYTHON EGGS REMOVED this season! 8 NESTS!! 🐍🥚 Go watch our new YouTube video on it out now! As Kyle said in the last post, we not only surpassed our record of 131 python eggs removed, but we more than TRIPLED our efforts from last year!! Which is so rewarding for us considering the literal years of research, time, energy, blood and sweat we’ve put into figuring this out. We feel strongly that this strategy is especially effective in managing these invasive species. To put it into perspective, the amount of eggs we removed this season is more than the amount of pythons we’ve removed over 5 years. Please, if you think this is cool and want to see more, go watch our latest YouTube video all about our first 2 nests of the season 🐍👐🏼🥚 #TheCritterCult #jointhecult
