The South Florida Water Management District's python incentive program has eliminated nearly 100 Burmese pythons in six months. Matt Kogo removed 13 pythons in June, earning a $1,000 award.

The average snake caught has measured 12.6 feet in length, and the program has removed 277 breeding females. The Burmese python has a diet of more than 80 species, according to the Conservancy.
