The South Florida Water Management District's new python incentive program has led to the elimination of more than 100 of the invasive snakes.

Florida Python Challenge begins July 11. Where will hunt be and what is the cash prize? The FWC's annual Florida Python Challenge will be July 11-20, 2025.

The FWC does not pay people to catch Burmese pythons unless they're contracted members of the Python Action Team Removing Invasive Constrictors Program or Florida Python Challenge winners.
