Yay! No Florida Python Challenge in 2014!

Florida isn't going do host another Python Challenge this year, which I think is a good thing. However, they are "focusing their efforts on programs that train licensed hunters". The article can be found here: http://news.yahoo.com/florida-scraps...234102231.html

I'm not to sure that's such a good thing. As much as I LOVE burms, been working with them for over 20 years, the fact is they remain an invasive species and should be dealt with accordingly. With that said if they don't hold anymore python hunts we can't keep proving there isn't as many out there as they claim to be.

Good points, I think its in all good Burm owners interest for ourselves and the enviroment that invasive wild Burms need to we eradicated.

They just don't want to have to face another epic fail like last time.

The feral cat problem has far more impact on Florida's ecosystem, but I haven't seen a ban on interstate shipment of domestic cats or kitty hunts being organized. People will do anything for re-election, I suppose.

I agree, I want to see more python hunts. What better way to show how few there really are? I'd like to see feral cat hunts too.
