Keep imagination in check....a snake can be thought of as just an ailimentary canal...and I doubt any African Pythons will ever be seen here....I hope.
Not too much to worry about in TV. According to National Geographic, there have only been 6 African pythons found since 2002, and all of those were in a 1 square mile area in a suburb of Miami. They like the hot weather, so they probably will stay south. They can cross breed with the Burmese python, which tolerate cooler temps but still prefer it hot.
