As an avid fan of reptiles I've been following developments in the exotic pet trade for 15+ years.
This goes wayyyyy beyond burms and includes a number of venemous species that get released too.
Burms in particular are hearty animals that grow fast and give birth to dozens of young at a time.
An adult burm is going to be immune from any predator in the US south other than a large alligator.
They can overpower and kill an adult male.
I will support any measure that limits the threat of invasive species like this regardless of the party.
