The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission just wrapped up this year's Florida Python Challenge, which saw the removal of 195 Burmese pythons from the Everglades. (In ten days) Florida's population of invasive pythons has increased exponentially in recent years. It's not clear exactly how many live there, but with females laying as many as 100 eggs at a time, some people estimate as many as 300,000 are living in the Everglades.
