Native to Asia, the black-tailed python has become a popular pet in the United States, and has now taken up residence in the Everglades natural park, where it is threatening the fragile ecosystem. 

This particularly voracious snake can grow up to five meters long and sometimes ventures into urban areas. To halt its proliferation, the Florida authorities organize a hunting competition, the Python Challenge. Every year, it attracts expert hunters like Nick Gadbois, a biologist who is considered one of the best snake hunters.
