Python Cowboy Sep 07, 2020

Florida's native wildlife has been decimated by invasive species such as feral hogs, green iguanas, and the massive Burmese python, a snake that can grow to be 20 ft long and take down a fully grown deer. Mike, the Python Cowboy, is a state contracted python hunter and the owner of Martin County Trapping & Wildlife Rescue. This guy is the real deal, as he bushwhacks through the everglades taking down record breaking pythons with his bare hands.
