How robot rabbits are saving the Everglades

Florida’s Everglades is full of giant, invasive snakes, but a fluffy, high-tech solution is prepared to help.

The state becomes a robot-filled rabbit to help the invasive bourney pistons that violate the fragile swamp ecosystems and harmed their homes. Florida is regularly hunting for pyths hunting for pythy hunting, the threat of count as long as the prey for large snakes.

Florida University and South Florida Water Management District developed Python-Hunting Tech this year, this year, remotely driven, preparing filled rabbits with the sun and even the odor of the sun. Robo-rabbits also spread a real heating signature by sending a message to the snakes who feel the heat in the nearest swamps.

As for the snakes, the robot rabbits are equipped with cameras that are interested in pythons, which are interested in them. When one of the invasive snakes is in a warning, a warning asked the region to want to send a special Python withdrawal agent to take care of the business.

“Invasive pytsons are one of the most destructive and harmful types in America’s Everglades,”, according to the site of the South Florida Water Management District. “The aggressive hernia in their native wildlife pants, rapors, bobcats and other native predators of primary food sources.”

The Python problem is so bad that the state holds an annual hunting known as Florida Python Challenge. This year, the 10-day competition attracted 934 python hunters from 30 countries around the country. Last month, participants added 294 invasive pythons, and 1400 invasive python since the competition launched in 2013.

A single opponent, in this summer, taking 10,000 US $ 10,000, the average of 6 to 9 to 9 feet of large snakes will reach 60,000 $ 60,000. Firearms are not allowed in the competition, so the participants are able to connect the snakes manually.
