In Florida, a man named Aaron Mann has proven his skills in capturing invasive pythons by bagging a remarkable 87 of them in just one month. His impressive feat earned him a $1,000 prize through the South Florida Water Management District’s Python Elimination Program.

The program incentivizes residents to help reduce the population of invasive Burmese pythons in the state. Mann’s success in July made him the recipient of the monthly award, showcasing his dedication to the cause.

Mann proudly displayed his catch, posing with a massive python draped over his and his hunting partner’s shoulders. Their triumph not only reflected in their kill count but also in the anticipation of the reward that awaited them.

In early 2025, the program introduced a monetary incentive to motivate participants to actively engage in python removal efforts and compete for the highest count each month.

Florida has various initiatives aimed at controlling the python population, including the annual Florida Python Challenge. Despite previous efforts, Mann’s achievement of 87 captures in a month stands out among the accomplishments of other participants.

Last year’s Challenge winner removed 20 pythons and received a $10,000 reward, showcasing the potential for significant earnings through python elimination efforts in the state.

Specialized python removal agents are compensated for each snake they capture, with additional payment for larger snakes exceeding the average length. The introduction of financial incentives has encouraged more individuals to participate in python removal activities.

Florida’s innovative approach includes a tracking program using robot rabbits to detect pythons, enabling swift removal by designated officials or removal agents who are duly rewarded for their efforts.

Despite being a non-native species, Burmese pythons have thrived in Florida’s Everglades since the 1990s, posing a threat to the local ecosystem. The exact population remains unknown, but efforts to remove them have been ongoing.

Approximately 19,000 pythons have been eliminated from the Everglades since 2000, indicating the scale of the challenge in managing the invasive species, as reported by Fox Weather Service.
