    People are scared of alligators. But in the Florida Everglades, alligators are scared of snakes. Watch this man save a gator getting squeezed to death by a python. https://cbsn.ws/2I5hHbw pic.twitter.com/PGgKgn5Lnz

        Why is a man taking sides in a snake v. alligator fight? Look out for fellow mammals, let the reptiles sort it out among themselves.

        Alligators are native species to Florida and important to our ecosystem. The boas/pythons are an invasive species and threatening our wildlife.

        Interesting. How do you determine which species are important to your ecosystem and which aren't? I never thought of alligators as important, they eat people. They're a menace.

        They don't eat people as a mainstay of their diet. They eat fish and turtles and keep certain populations of animals from overgrowing and starving out - it's a food chain. Which animal takes precedent is determined by which is natural to the environment.

        But how do you determine when an animal is natural to its environment? Thousands of years ago horses weren't natural to America until Europeans introduced them here. Now wild horse families roam the country in some parts of the U.S. They seem to fit in with their ecosystem fine

        Don't you get my point? Many types of plant & animal species aren't natural to America. They were artificially introduced. America had no cattle or pigs or horses. Europe had no corn, potatoes or chocolate. So 'natural' is a deceptive term, we artificially select quite often

        It's not natural. The pythons are not indigenous to Florida.

        They've wiped out all the small mammals in the Everglades, and,now are moving on to baby gators. Won't be long,unless some eradication is in order.
