I think they should be left in place because the subsequent generations have already established themselves within the local eco system and a balance will be reached. As a snake guy I'm also in favour of this because they are an endangered species.
This has also happened with humans in the Americas. But no one is calling for European descendants and by default African descendants to be removed from the continent because the subsequent generations are now established there. Humans are part of the animal kingdom so this situation is no different.
