From an outsiders point of view - I'd say no. The 'problems' caused by the apparent explosion in the population of Burmese Pythons is entirely the fault of human carelessness and indifference - there are always alternatives to just releasing an alien species the size of a Burmese python into the wild of a foreign country, rather than re-home it !

It just goes to prove that people should research animals properly before they take on the responsibility !

Does the reticulated python have any competitors?

Although the retic. is the "longest" snake in the world, it does not mean that it doesn't have any competitors. Other snakes, such as Burmese, Indian python and the amethystine python are very similar in terms of their hunting methods and prey. I wouldn't want to run into any of these animals "WILD" and at full size......they would present a big problem!!

What type of growth curve is typically seen if no predator for a population of animals?

An exponential growth curve is typically seen if there is no predator for a population of animals or if the predator's population decreases. Without any, or many, predators to keep the species' population in check, the population may grow rapidly. An example is the Burmese python in Florida. Since it's an invasive species instead of native to the area, the Burmese python has no natural predators there and has experienced a surge in population.

What does an adult burmese python weigh?

Depends on the size of the python - an adult can eat something as large as a small goat !Diet consists of small mammals and birds, the larger the python the larger the prey which include pigs, dogs, cats and primates, etc., the python ambushes it's prey, holds it with it's teeth and suffocates the victim with constriction rather then crushing it, after swallowing the prey whole digestion takes many days to several weeks depending on the size of the prey.
