    Ball pythons an Invasive species?!

    NERD just posted and so here it is for you guys

    "Here is an excerpt from the review article:

    “The last chapter in the book is titled “Other Species at Risk
    of Becoming Established in the United States.” Seven species
    are briefly discussed; six are species that were featured in Reed
    and Rodda (2009), and are included in the proposed action of
    the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to list ten species of great
    constrictors on the Injurious Wildlife List. The seventh is Python regius, ball pythons, one of the most popular captive
    snakes in the world with more than a million animals in this
    country. The authors warn that this species is likely to become
    invasive.
    From the review article of the book:
