The season on Burmese is open. In fact, the state is paying people to kill them.</div></div>
I believe that goes for Iguanas as well......Those things are all over the place on the south end of the state. Nasty things crap all over everything. </div></div>
The biggest difference is that pythons actually upset the ecosystem in a major way by becoming an instant apex predator. It has been documented that pythons have the ability, and from time to time the inclination, to eat full grown alligators. Plus they reproduce like the plague.
Iguanas just eat leaves that grow back quickly. Not that they belong, but they are not the same danger as pythons to the ecosystem.
