I was hopeing that they would just lift the stupid 3 month season for hunters. From Shawn Heflicks report it sounds like the pythons are dieing on their own for the most part.
I have mixed feelings about the general public being handed cash prizes for hunting them. Mostly because I bet you someone will get hurt and this will be more regulation fodder but also because it will disturb the local wildlife.
On the pro side though, the problem will be "solved" locally, not that we will get our "rights" back to own big snakes but it does serve as a historical example of how people are completely capable of solving a local invasive problem without laws and regs.
