Nothing like a 20 foot python to invade the US…

Sooo my google news alerts came up with this headline: ”Snakes on the Great Plains? Fort Collins researcher says 20-foot-long pythons could be moving north from Florida”

And needless to say it grabbed my eye. Because Gordon Rodda, a zoologist with the U.S. Geological Survey, projects that escaped Floridan pet pythons could grow to 20 feet in length and snake their way up the American lines of latitude - up the coast of California for example. Next up, is a study examining how the giant constrictors - including boa constrictors and yellow anacondas - could invade the continental US.

Nothing like wittle snakey wakey slithering away in a bid to freedom.
