I only needed to see the preview of Anaconda to know what the movie was about:  A bunch of people in the jungle trying to kill a big snake. This is just like that only it doesn’t suck. Florida is rounding up a team of snake hunters to troll through the Everglades and kill some of the estimated 100,000 Burmese pythons living there. The non-native species now breed and live freely in the Everglades after getting dumped as former pets. They ran the idea of putting a bounty on the snakes past some government officials but later dismissed it.

‘Bounty hunting conjures up an image of `Come one, come all’ and go out and start shooting around like Dick Cheney for $50 a head,” McLaughlin said.

Too bad, it’d be a great job for the 10% of Floridians collecting unemployment. Plus if some of the 20-foot snakes ate them, no more unemployment payments.
