Florida: American Alligator Vs. Burmese Python?

[Lucas339]

Populations of wild animals tend to limit themselves and plateau once they reach a certain level so that they don't eat all of their prey and then the whole species starves. Honestly, I don't think its as big of a deal as people say it is. Sure, something should be done to get these snakes under control, but I'm not worried about the wild population of animals.

this only works with natural populations. not populations with a introduced predator.

Both snakes and gaters are ambush preditors, whoever strikes first would be the winner in that scenario. A snake would be no match for a gator's teeth and massive jaw pressure, and a gator would be no match for a burm's squeeze. Both animals have the ability to sit still for long periods of time and wait for their next meal.

the poll is who will own the everglades. not who will eat who.
