Increasing public awareness about Burmese pythons and how this invasive species is a threat to the Everglades ecosystem, including native wildlife, is the goal of the 2013 Python Challenge™.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) and its partners are launching the 2013 Python Challenge™ to enlist both the general public and python permit holders in a month-long harvest of Burmese pythons. The public also is invited to two free educational and exciting events in south Florida:

The 2013 Python Challenge™ Kickoff on Saturday, Jan. 12, 2013 at the University of Florida Fort Lauderdale Research and Education Center in Davie.
The 2013 Python Challenge™ Awareness and Awards Event on Saturday, Feb. 16, 2013 at Zoo Miami.
