DeSantis said "These pythons are a threat to the Everglades. They prey on mammals, birds, other reptiles,"

The governor announced the 2022 Florida Python Challenge.

The Florida Python Challenge will take place from August 5 thru August 14. A total of 223 pythons were caught or killed last year.

There will be cash prizes for the winners. Categories will include most pythons caught and longest python caught.

Military veterans who participate will receive bonus prize money. OORAH!
