Florida has a twisted relationship with the Burmese python. Americans imported nearly 100,000 of them from Southeast Asia between 1996 and 2006. (The US banned their import in 2012.) Many petowners hadn’t realized that the snakes grow to 12 feet, on average,and they abandoned them. South Florida’s warm wetlands offer the perfect adoptive habitat. Their inconspicuous patterning conceals them in the already remote Everglades, which makes them hard to track.
Ecologists peg their detectability at less than 1 percent. That means if there are 100 snakes in your survey area, you’d be lucky to spot just one.
