AXS TV, Dan Rather Reports, "Pythons in Florida" Excerpt

"Dan Rather Reports" travels to Everglades National Park to investigate the infestation of the Burmese Python. These snakes, a threatened species in Asia, are attractive pets to some, but when they grow to their full size -- sometimes over 20 feet long -- they can overwhelm a household. What may have began as a few people releasing a single snake into the park has now become a population of an estimated 100,000 snakes -- and in some cases, these pythons are depleting the park of indigenous species to the tune of 90% or more. Dan Rather Reports airs Tuesdays at 8 and 11pm ET on AXS TV.
