After a record 17-foot Burmese python carrying 87 eggs was caught in Everglades National Park Monday the Nature Conservancy reminds residents and visitors it has a 24-hour response team in ten counties including Collier, Hendry and Glades.

If you see a sun-bathing python or any other invasive species, like Nile monitors, take a photo and call I-888-IveGot1 to report your sighting to the Python Patrol.

Anyone in Florida can leave a message, file a report on line at IveGot1.org or through its iPhone App for the Conservancy’s Python Patrol program.  It began in 2008 and is now being implemented across the southern part of the state.
