Because Burmese Pythons are a native reptile species of the Burma and India regions of Asia !

Releasing one into the wild of any other country would not only put the snake at risk from predators - but risk it feeding on domestic animals (including pets !)

Burmese Python could spread throughout the southern US?

It's possible - because a small group of irresponsible owners have released their unwanted snakes into the wild - instead of re-homing them ! If you can't cope with an animal - you find a new home for it - you don't just let it loose!

Compare and contrast Burmese pythons and brown garden snails?

Both lay eggs, but the garden snail lays eggs in a hole and does not stay with the eggs. A Burmese python stays with his eggs. the snail does not have anything to do with it's offspring ,where a Burmese python stays with it's eggs for 6-8 weeks or until it's offspring hatch and when they hatch then the mom leaves and has nothing else to do with it's offspring.

How did burmese python get in America?

I assume you're talking about the Python 'problem' in areas such as Florida in the US.The simple answer is - Burmese Pythons might look cute as a hatchling of around 30 inches, BUT - they grow BIG fairly quickly. Add to that - that they are also unpredictable snakes - and you begin to see the 'problem'. In all the years I have kept reptiles - only one specimen turned nasty. Wouldn't let me handle him - ever. Every hatchling I've had - grew to around eight feet by the time it was a year old !The problem in america is simply unscrupulous owners ! They buy a 'little guy' as a new 'hobby'.... then, when the snake gets too big to handle - or it tries to eat the pet cat or dog - they simply release them into the wild ! The sensible thing to do with any 'unwanted' animal - is to re-home it with someone who actually knows the species - not just turn it loose !

What is an afordable house pet for a teen?

A Burmese python makes an easy and affordable pet. You can feed them rats or mice which you can easily raise or buy cheap from the petstore (tell them it's a feeder when you buy it, you usually get a discount). They only need to eat once a week (or less). They are silent. They do not need to be walked or exercised or let out in the yard. they do not wander around the house. They do not smell (much). It is unlikely to get pregnant. Unless scared or startled, they rarely bite anything too large for them to eat. I am sure some other constrictors, such as the ball python, would make suitable pets, but my experience is with the burmese python. Depends on where the teen is living, if in an apartment get something small, like a fish or a hamster or some type of rodent. If in a house you could get a bird, dog or cat. it also depends on what you are aiming to spend on this animal, and how much time you have to care for it.

Is it possible to let your ball python and your king snake meet?

I wouldn't recommend it. King snakes are called king snakes because they eat other snakes in the wild. Unless you want one (or possibly two) dead snakes, I wouldn't try that if I were you.
