Really Interesting Article: Burmese Pythons Are Wiping Out Mammals in the Everglades

[Lepisosteus platyrhincus]

Hey man, don't shoot the messenger... I'm just going based on what the study says. It's made by the US government and I have no reason to suspect a conspiracy. I don't believe there's a big anti-snake lobby either, so I assumed the study was unbiased.

Im not shooting the messanger of posting an article. Im holding a man responcible for his his words. You posted extra stuff that is untrue and reaks of propaganda. The study is HIGLY biased. Plec, this involves you too. The USGS studys regarding the burms have been proven again and again to be biased. They drove down the road and looked for road kill. Problem is they pick and choose what animals to look for and picked and choose what animals to factor in. bobcats are rarely ever hit by a car but because they found very few hit that means the burms have killed them all? Bull.

There is a HUGE anti snake lobby. There also is a HUGE anti animal lobby. Hince why things such as HR669 was ever made. If you think that isnt the case you hiding your head in the sand. Do some research before you try to just write us off as anti gov nut jobs.

Those that think we are "anti gov nutjobs", what do you think of that map? Think its accurate? That is a USGS map. You think there isnt massive anti snake sentimate?

Plec, your clearly taking sides. But see above and im not addressing your gun statement as ill get banned. Your post is so ignorant that commenting will literally cause me to have an anuerism.

Gee, you got all that just by looking at some stupid image of a map ? Which by the way doesn't mean anything. If that's a USGS map then why doesn't it link to their site ? Where are your facts to back up your claims, oh you don't have any. You clearly are a nutjob (justkidding), actually no I'm not.

Im done arguing with people on here. Iit is well known that HSUS and PETA are the drving force behind these bills. Its USGS map, id give ya the link but its a pdf there for unexcessable on my phone. Do some research, youll find it. In fact do alittle research on this subject before spouting from your mouth.


Iv been feeding the trolls too much, I need to stop before I get banned.

Anyone who knows about climate zones would know that the first map is a complete lie. Allow to to explain without using another map.

I grow many carnivorous plants, half of which require a winter dormancy. The majority of my plants are from the genus Sarracenia, which occur throughout the Southeast and one species into East Texas. These plants absolutely require a winter dormancy with temperatures around 40 degrees F. Tropical reptiles cannot survive these temperatures, which typically last for 3 months. The map authors probably thought, "Oh let's draw the line at the Mason Dixon line, that designates the South. Everyone knows the South is hot."

Ecosystems come and go and the strongest will inherit the earth and create new ecosystems. If a species is too weak to fend off predators then they do not deserve to survive. I don't think anyone has the right to say where a creature can and can not exist. Maybe one day these beasts will wipe us out too that is, unless we kill each other first. What ever is left standing is the king of the jungle.

wow im lost for words
