FWC plans youth python hunts

Posted

Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) will host a Youth Hunting Program python hunts this summer to educate the next generation about the negative impacts of this invasive species and how hunters can help.

Before the hunts, youth participants will receive training about why and how to safely remove these invasive constrictors from the wild. Then they’ll get a chance to use their new skills with oversight by mentors from our Python Action Team and the South Florida Water Management District’s Python Elimination Program.

Youth aged 12 to 17 who have never had the opportunity to python hunt are invited to participate. Hunts are planned for June 24-26 and July 29-31. To learn more and register: https://bit.ly/3Kyle2d
