Another monster gone!

Oh my gosh.

Burmese Pythons have transformed the entire ecosystem of South Florida.

After arriving here as seemingly innocent pets, these snakes have overrun their new environment in just a few decades.

The thing is, there's still a lot we don't know about how these elusive snakes live in the wild, like how long they live, how far they move, or even how many offspring they have.

And the only way to find out... well, is to catch them.

So I met up with a python hunter, an exotic pet dealer, and a team of wildlife biologists to get the story behind the invasion, and see how these dedicated south Floridians are working together to protect these natural habitats.

I'm Shane Campbell-Staton, and this is Human footprint.

Once I see it, adrenaline starts pumping and, you know, the game's on.

I've caught on full moons, I've caught below 75.
