Too many restrictions on hunting them. If they seriously want to get rid of them then paying cash bounties will do it.
As usual the government will study it for years and then when it's too late (maybe now) will authorize proper measures.
They're afraid the public will confuse pythons with garter snakes and kill needed species! (I kid you not)
According to the regulations outside of regular hunting season you can't use firearms or other weapons. You must pick them up live (150-200 pounds plus the deer, raccoon, rabbit, flamingo or alligator they just ate) put them in your Prius and take them to a vet to be euthanized! Really? !!! (yes, a slight distortion but close).
