Biologists in Key Largo are using possums as bait to catch invasive Burmese pythons, a method that has proven successful in removing large breeders. The team, led by grad student A.J. Sanjar, traps possums and fits them with cheap trackers that signal when a python eats one. This approach has led to the capture of eighteen major pythons in two summers, outperforming traditional methods. The team aims to expand this strategy statewide, leveraging possums as frontline defenders against the python invasion.
