How do you kill snakes humanely in the Florida Python Challenge? In the competition, Burmese pythons must be humanely killed. Novices must kill them immediately at the place they were caught.

They look, move and even smell like the kind of furry Everglades marsh rabbit a Burmese python would love to eat.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission shows step-by-step instructions on how to safely and effectively capture a python.

The Florida Python Challenge, a 10-day competition to remove the most pythons, is back in July.

Her name is Taylor Stanberry and thanks to finding and eliminating 60 pythons in July, she's the 2025 winner of the Florida Python Challenge.
