Scientists are concerned about the invasion of pythons in the Florida Everglades. Pythons are from Asia and are not native to the Everglades. They eat eggs and birds, many of which are endangered. The snakes were introduced to the Everglades when people released into the wild pet snakes that had grown too large. Very few animals in the Everglades prey on the snakes.

How will scientists be most effective at controlling this invasive species?

by collecting and removing the snakes from the Everglades

by releasing predators from Asia to control the snake population

I think the best thing to do would be removing the snakes from the everglades because if you brought predators from Asia, wouldn't there be a repeat of the snake thing? I mean the predators from Asia would multiply and it would be a repeat of the Burmese python event in the everglades. What good would it be telling people? Like everyone already know. Honestly people
