Cane Toads to Iguanas in Florida
Igs in Florida and large constrictors in the Glades
Invasive Pythons Squeezing Everglades its no secret that invasive animals cause destruction.
It has been mentioned already, there are very few rescue organizations that can handle one or two large constrictors or iguanas, they certainly can't handle the lot of them.
Besides eating native fauna, or killing it upon ingestion (in the case of the cane Toad) these animals have no natural predators in their area to help maintain the balance found in nature. It is important for the animal control officials to step in and help maintain that balance to protect the hundreds of other species of plants and animals that are being decimated by these invasive animals, as well as protect the human counterparts from danger.
I hate that it is happening to the animals, when essentially it isnt their fault they wound up dumped, and they are just doing what animals try to do, surviving.
