 Burmese python captured in Southwest Florida with large prey item 
  
 The Conservancy of Southwest Florida documented a Burmese python eating a white-tailed deer that weighed more than the python itself. This is believed to be the largest predator/prey ratio ever documented for the Burmese python, and possibly for any species of python. The findings will be published in the March 2018 issue of Herpetological Review. 
  
 “This observation is another important piece of evidence for the negative impact invasive Burmese pythons are having on native wildlife across the Greater Everglades Ecosystem” said Ian Bartoszek, Conservancy of Southwest Florida wildlife biologist. “Imagine the potential consequences to the state and federally protected Florida panther if Burmese pythons adversely affect the number of white-tailed deer, a panther’s primary prey.” 
  
 On April 7, 2015, Conservancy wildlife biologists and land managers from Collier-Seminole State Park discovered an 11-foot female Burmese python in the park that was visibly distended by a large food bulge. After capturing the snake and moving it to an open area, the snake began to regurgitate a young white-tailed deer.

 Once both animals could be weighed, the team noted the fawn’s mass was 15.88 kilograms (35 pounds), which was 111.1 percent the mass of the python at 14.29 kg (31.5 pounds). 
  
 The find also questions if the Burmese python may be able to negatively impact the population of white-tailed deer by preying on young fawns before they are old enough to mate. Some studies suggest the Burmese python is responsible for a 90 percent decline in small mammal populations in the eastern Everglades. The Conservancy of Southwest Florida’s mission is to protect the region’s water, land wildlife and future.

 “Our research and removal efforts are driven by what the science shows us,” said Conservancy of Southwest Florida President and CEO Rob Moher. “We are learning valuable information that is helping us push back against this invasive species that is significantly and negatively impacting our native wildlife.”

 About our Burmese python research 
  
 The Conservancy of Southwest Florida is involved in Burmese python research in order to better understand their breeding and eating habits. This research is uncovering solutions to help control the population of this invasive species. 
  
 Since 2013, the Conservancy of Southwest Florida and research partners have been conducting radio telemetry fieldwork to document python biology and behavior in Collier County. 
  
 A primary objective is to develop a database of behavior and habitat uses to better understand invasive Burmese python activities in southwest Florida. This information will be used to help land managers to develop a strategy to help control the population of this invasive species. 
  
 Tracking 
  
 Adult pythons are captured, surgically implanted with a radio-transmitter, and released back at the capture site. These individuals are referred to as “sentinel snakes” for their ability to lead researchers to other pythons during the breeding season. 
  
 A total of 20 adult male pythons are currently under surveillance through radio telemetry, leading researchers to more pythons during the breeding season. This tracking method helps the team to gain a better understanding of their movement patterns and work to control the local population of this invasive apex predator. Adult female pythons and their eggs are humanely euthanized and the Conservancy of Southwest Florida’s wildlife biologists then perform a necropsy to examine the animal, log data and collect genetic samples for further studies. 
  
 Biologists are accumulating valuable life history information on the behavior of Burmese pythons in Southwest Florida. This information is leading to the development of an effective python removal technique that combines both hunting and radio-telemetry tracking efforts to target and remove breeding female pythons and disrupt the egg-laying cycle. 
  
 “If we can continue to target breeding female pythons for removal the results are two-fold,” said Moher. “We are keeping the invasive snakes from multiplying and reducing the overall impact on our native wildlife populations.” 
  
 “After five years of studying these cryptic animals, we know the best way to locate a female python in southwest Florida during the breeding season is by tracking a male python. We’ve effectively turned the pythons against themselves.” said Bartoszek. 
  
 As of February 2018, Conservancy biologists and research collaborators have removed hundreds of adult Burmese pythons with a combined weight of over 10,000 pounds (4,536 kg / 5 tons) from a localized area of Southwest Florida. 
  
 This project is primarily funded through private philanthropic support. 
  
 The Conservancy of Southwest Florida partners with scientists and land managers from the U.S. Geological Survey, Rookery Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve, Collier Seminole State Park, University of Florida, Florida Gulf Coast University, Denison University and Naples Zoo to study and address the problem of invasive Burmese pythons in Southwest Florida. ||||| NAPLES, Fla. (AP) — Researchers studying invasive Burmese pythons in Florida came upon something they'd never seen before: an 11-foot-long python had consumed an entire deer that weighed more than the snake itself. 
  
 The wildlife biologists tracking the slithery creatures stumbled upon bloated snake in Collier Seminole State Park, and when they moved the creature it began regurgitating a white-tailed deer fawn. 
  
 Biologist Ian Bartoszek told the Naples Daily News that the fawn weighed 35 pounds; the snake 31.5. 
  
 "We were sitting there just trying to process that an animal this size could get its head around what turned out to be a deer," Bartoszek said. "It's surreal to see that in the field." 
  
 Bartoszek said it was the largest python-to-prey weight difference he had measured. 
  
 Burmese pythons, which can grow nearly 20-feet long, were brought to South Florida as pets in the late 1970s. They were released into the wild, and have become a problematic invasive species. 
  
 White-tailed deer are an important food source for Florida's endangered panthers, so the researchers are concerned the pervasive snakes could also impact the health of the big cats. 
  
 If the snake had been left in the wild, it would have digested the entire deer, Bartoszek said. 
  
 He said the predator-to-prey size ratio stunned his team. 
  
 "It showed my team and myself what we were actually dealing with out there, what this python is capable of," he told the newspaper.
