This is what happens when a 13' python tries to eat a 6' alligator in the Florida Everglades.They both end up dead.It's a win win.

Unfortunately due to hurricane Andrew destroying several reptile farms, and drug dealers in south Fl getting bored with their snakes and turning them loose,we are starting to have a serious problem.

Here is a heart warmer about some inbreds letting thir snake kill their two year old.

Sen.Bill Nelson and Gov. Charlie Crist have been bitching about the problem for awhile and now we are officially in snake hunt status.

The python aligator pic is from a few years back.I added it to give context to the problem.The mandate for a state authorized hunt happened this week.

Could you northern states please keep your non-paying red neck snake owners up there where they belong.We have our own problems.

I just scanned over the story. Where does northern rednecks come into the story?

[spankyfrank]

This thread title is very mis-leading, I totally thought the Monty Python boys were doin' something again

booooooooo

I just scanned over the story. Where does northern rednecks come into the story?

The people who vacated the house and abandoned the snake moved back to Wisconsin.I think that's still in the north.

BTW part of the Monty Python guys are dead so it will be pretty much impossible for them to do something again.Best hope for that Beatles reunion.

I just assumed all rednecks in Fla were native. Maybe yankee rednecks can't cut it down there.

We keep all of the native red necks corralled in the middle of the state.It's when the imports get loose close to the coasts that we start to have problems.
