CAPE CORAL, Fla. — Florida Fish and Wildlife announced on Thursday that it will offer expert hands-on training for people to learn how to self-capture a live python.
There is an online course that participants need to take before reserving a spot for the training.
This announcement from FWC comes ahead of its annual competition to remove invasive Burmese Pythons that will run from August 5 to August 14. The top hunters will get cash prizes - and, for the first time, active-duty military members and veterans taking part in the competition will get additional cash prizes.
To get to the online course, reserve a spot for training and register for the competition, go to the FL Python Challenge website.
