Sagot :
Anacondas or any non-native species have the
potential to cause disruption in the ecosytem’s food chain. This puts strain on the prey animal
populations, and bobcat, raccoon and opossum populations have dwindled.
Competition with alligators and expanding suburban areas means that more snakes will invade populated areas. These snakes may even view children, adults of small stature and pets as prey.

There are not anacondas emerging, but there are Burmese pythons and African rock pythons escaping and being presented. Any time a non-native species is presented it has the potential to produce disruption, such as by interrupting the normal food chain. Both of these pythons are very abundant species, far larger than any native snake in Florida, and are apex predators. This can be a major disturbance to the food chain as Florida previously has the American alligator as an apex predator. This puts the strain on the prey animal populations.
These snakes are also dangerous to us. There have been descriptions of them eating pets, and an adult Burmese or African rock python is powerful just to kill an adult human. These snakes may even view children or adults of small stature as prey. Competition with alligators and developing suburban areas means that more of those snakes will work their way into populated areas except their populations are kept in check.
