i don't think we should up and picket this study. it is being done with wild caught burms from the glades. this study could prove that the media hype about the "python invasion" isn't as big as a threat as some are making it out to be.
would you rather a couple of these animals be used for some data to help our community rather than them being killed for no use? at the very least, these animals are being used to help us.
