yeah, it's a bittersweet situation. also that big girl is a great big catch (and kill). 73 eggs!

"Using male pythons with radio transmitters allows the team to track the male to locate breeding females," their statement says. "The team not only removes the invasive snakes, but collects data for research, develops new removal tools and learns how the pythons are using the Preserve."
that's an ingenious method! u can get multiple catches, track patterns and hides/nests.
