They're an invasive species in Florida, usa. As usual - the human race is to blame for their introduction ! People bought them as babies when they were only a few inches long. Sadly, these snakes grow large very quickly - attaining a length of eight feet in their first year ! Irresponsible owners, who found they couldn't cope - simply dumpedthis alien species into the wild - and now are complainingthat their pets are being attacked - by a reptile that is simply doing what is natural behaviour for the species - predation on suitably-sized mammals for food !
