    It’s amazing how just one invasive species can destroy an eco-system. I was talking ot a local Fish and Wildlife officer the other day about a tiny little mollusk called the Zebra Mussel, a voracious consumer of freshwater plankton. This thing has all but wiped out Lake Mead, he said,

    That’s an interesting fact about Abraham Lincoln. His hat really came in handy.

    I’ve actually seen videos of people cook and eat hagfish slime like egg whites.

    Not all of the Everglades python population is due to their negligent owners dumping them. As I remember the story there were lots of pythons and boas that escaped from their damaged cages during Hurricane Andrew back in the early 90s. With no natural predators and a near perfect environment for them, why should we be surprised they have thrived.
