My favorite part is how he defends himself in the comment section. He says in the article it's possible for the pythons to kill and eat humans, but down in the comments he clarifies that he's talking about children specifically (because everyone knows nothing currently living in the everglades could kill children [/sarcasm]). He's also blatantly refusing to listen to anyone he says is blinded by their affection for the snakes they keep or anyone who doesn't site a study directly defying the newest junk science he's based the entire article off of. Ridiculous fear mongering from start to finish.
The map is hilarious. There is noooo way these snakes could live in like 95% of these places. Have you seen west Texas? Or Southern California? Desert snakes these must be!!!
0.1 Lesser Pastel
1.0 Black Spooky Kitty 0.1 Faye Tiny Kitty
?.? Feral Cat Colony
And more on the way always....
A friend of mine who has nothing to do with snakes, reported hearing about a new mega-Python breed: Burmese Pythons mating with Rock Pythons. Anybody else hear anything about this? Sounds kooky to me.....

More fear-mongering speculative drivel, which I would not have expected from national geographic. It makes a lot of assumptions and reads like a "what if" scenario gone wrong.
As far as if a hybrid actually does exist, I have no idea. All the google results are news articles along the same line, and the image results give me what look like burms and what I assume are rock pythons, but I'm not sure if any of these are actual crosses.
