The Florida Python Challenge® is a ten-day competition, challenging participants to remove as many Burmese pythons from Florida’s public lands as possible. The intent of the Florida Python Challenge® is to raise public awareness about Burmese pythons in Florida and how this invasive species is a threat to the Everglades ecosystem, including native wildlife. The python removal competition begins at 8:00 a.m. on Friday, August 5, 2022 and ends at 5:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 14, 2022. . . . #saveth
