Yep you know theres a problem when you see a burm eating a gator. There needs to be stiffer laws on animals like that, however not stop them all. When i got my permits from the state, there required to come by each year, sometimes twice to see caging, husbandry methods, etc. And to count current animals. I no longer keep that permit, just a few snakes and a few local hots, but they need to tighten it down. The everglades is a nice place, and using that as an example tropical snakes can thrive there.
