The 2025 Florida Python Challenge is on! Hunters are hitting the Everglades to capture the invasive species threatening native wildlife - and our very own @pauldolanreports joined in overnight, tracking pythons from dusk to dawn. 🐍🌙 The challenge runs through July 20, with categories for both novice and professional hunters. Competitors must complete FWC’s training and follow strict rules for humane removal. #FloridaPythonChallenge #PythonHunt #Everglades #InvasiveSpecies #FWC #WildlifeProtect
