EVERGLADES, Fla. (WSVN) — It’s not every day you see an elected official in the wild hunting for pythons.
Democratic U.S. Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz joined a team of scientists from the University of Florida’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Research to capture a 10-foot python.
The group had been tracking the monster snake to mark it with a new GPS tag, which is part of an ongoing research effort to better understand and remove the ecologically harmful serpents.
