The moment a python is captured

When invasive snakes began killing the Everglades' native wildlife, Florida came up with a plan: bring in bounty hunters.

Burmese pythons are thought to have come to Florida as pets in the mid-1990s. From 1996 to 2006, around 99,000 pythons were brought to the US to be sold as pets. For four years, Amy Siewe worked as a python removal agent for South Florida's Water Management District.
