It must be on the internet.... Here it is: http://news.mongabay.com/2005/1005-gator.html You often hear of newspaper sad stories of missing cats and dogs and they find a Boa or Python with a big belly near by. Stupid people just leave their snakes in the Everglades and now they are rampant! Where I am, its hilarious! We get a season of lizards, then a season of frogs, then a season of snakes! Its hilarious to witness this predictable food chain circle year after year. I see them on my front porch - First lizards (i.e. Green/Brown Anole), then Frogs, then Snakes! and then it cycles again! -- HLS
