Burmese Pythons In The Everglades

A creature that walks on all four and is known to have a poisonous bite, this isn 't a dinosaur living in the future it is the Komodo Dragon. People have seen Komodo Dragons in the zoo before and have thought that this creature is harmless, until there were reports of how Komodo Dragons attacked and killed villagers. Komodo dragons attacks are increasing and is causing a problem for the villagers that live on the island with them, but there is a solution. Komodo dragons attacks in Indonesia is increasing rapidly. News reports from all over Indonesia are describing how vicious and aggresive these animals are when they attck people.

After World War II, the Brown Tree Snake was accidentally transported from its original home of the South Pacific to Guam, supposedly through a cargo ship or the landing gears of planes transporting goods. As a result of the abundance of prey Guam has, and the low numbers of natural predators aside from feral pigs and mangrove monitors, the Brown Tree Snake reached unfathomable numbers. Wiping out many native vertebrate species, domestic birds and pets, as well as inflicting emotional trauma to tourists and residents by the potential envenomation of small children. This population on Guam is the only reported population outside of their native regions, but they oppose a great threat to Guam. This snake is not restricted to just forests but

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service prevents the burmese pythons from being imported across state lines. This species has been reported to be seen in the Florida Everglades since the 1980s. It is thought that they escaped from a breeding facility and that was demolished during a hurricane and/or pet pythons were released near or in the Everglades. Their prey consists of many mammals, birds, and alligators. According

Also, the vast release of carbon dioxide from people’s factories, uses of the air conditioner and cars has resulted in global warming, which afflicts polar bears to near extinction. Similarly, deforestation excessively annihilates habitats of many forest animals, resulting in an immense decrease in their population. All of these do not represent harmony in nature at all. If humans continue to ruin the shelters of animals, no wonder humans will die eventually because of the unbalanced population of each species and the destruction of the world. To sum up, humans seriously have to stop their affliction of other animals and the earth and start to contemplate on the significance of harmony in nature because humans can only survive under harmonious relationship between nature in the

This is because desert species are often

Discovery A team of researchers in Madagascar has discovered the fossil of what may be the largest frog to have ever lived. The beach-ball-size amphibian, which grew to be 16 inches (40.6 centimeters) long and weighed about (4.5kilograms) its name is Beelzebufo. ’ Paleontologist David Krause of Stony Brook University in New York made the discovery and is working together with other scientists to determine how. Habitat/ Relation Beelzebufo is related to other frogs and to understand how and why they are on the island of Madagascar.

But there are other reasons for the great ape 's death, such as poachers and diseases. Poachers have been told to stop, but it still happens. The government even made it illegal. Diseases cannot be stopped, which is why they kill so many apes. I think that people should stop cutting down forests, and help save the environment.

The remigration interval between nesting seasons for the majority of female Atlantic leatherbacks is two years, though three-year remigration intervals are not uncommon. I discovered from the article I read by M. C. James, S. A. Sherrill-Mix, and R. A. Myers that the coastal and slope waters of the Northwest Atlantic above 38° N provide high-use foraging habitat for leatherbacks and the waters off Nova Scotia, Canada, are particularly important to this species. This is indicated by the large seasonal gathering of turtles that occur there to feed. By tagging the leatherbacks with passive integrated transponders (PITs), the researchers were able to trace the nesting origins and foraging spots of the tagged specimens.

Pandas Did you know that pandas have lived on earth for more than two million years?! Well, it’s true, but today they are almost extinct! But other than that they are these cute chubby little creatures that we can go and see in China or at the zoo.

The consumers are cassowary, insects, ulysses, butterflies, whichetty grub, spotted cuscus, sugar glider, goanna, azure kingfisher, and feral pigs. Cassowaries eat the reptiles and the crocodiles eat the platypuses. Estuarine Crocodile is one of the well known species in Daintree. According to the article titled Fauna of the Daintree Rainforest. (n.d.)

The scientists want to be able to educate people about these snakes, so they can find out how to solve the problem. The invasive Burmese pythons, are negatively impacting the population of other animals in the Everglades. These pythons do not belong in Florida. With them around, Florida’s small mammals and birds living in the Everglades will be gone for good.

The python and another snake known as the Tree snake have caused the extinction of 10 native species, including the Songbird, some lizard species, and bats (Florida 's Python Problem: Snakes Reshape the Everglades). Florida is doing its best to maintain the species, but its getting to a point where its starting to become to late to stop them. It seems that the species has already taken a firm root upon the Florida Everglades. The fear too is that the snake will continue moving more north and spreading itself out into other regions of the US. This is why it is crucial to stop them because different regions contain different species, and most likely, the snakes will be on the higher end because of their size, their sneakiness, and their strength.

The presence of Burmese pythons are changing the Everglades because they are forcing many humans to hunt the pythons and Burmese pythons are wiping out native species. The only solution to the Burmese python crisis is to convince people to go out and hunt them. “Python Challenge” is an advertisement that uses appealing phrases and prize money to convince many citizens to hunt and kill these pythons.

The Burmese python has caused a decrease in the local animal population. The Burmese python has also caused a change in the little ecosystem the Everglades has. The view of people about the Everglades has also changed. To begin with, the Burmese infestation has caused a decline in the animal population in the Everglades. According to the article, “Florida Python

In the recent years, there has been an increase of invasive species in Florida such as the Burmese phyton. These reptiles are initially from Southeast Asia but due to the irresponsibility of some pet owners, they have started to invade Florida specifically in the Everglades. So far, an alarming amount counting in the hundreds have been captured in the Everglades National Park, showing how important it is to keep their population under control and from wreaking havoc. Known for consuming birds and small mammals, they show an immense effect on the local ecosystem. Authorities have hired hunters and even started annual manhunt events for these pests.
