- Integrated Analysis of Species Invasion Under the Telecoupling Framework: Burmese Python Across Southeast Asia, the USA, and Beyond.
Klemann C, Liu J · Biology · 2026-09 · open access
In an increasingly globalizing world, invasive species have become a serious concern worldwide. Numerous studies have focused on the biology of different invasive species, but few have systematically integrated socioeconomic and environmental factors. The framework of telecoupling…
- Prioritizing removals of a highly cryptic invasive species using machine learning and demographic weighting.
Romer AS, Miller MA, Balaguera-Reina SA et al. · Ecological applications : a publication of the Ecological Society of America · 2026-09 · open access
Invasive species present substantial challenges to biodiversity conservation, particularly when low detectability and demographic heterogeneity obscure the population-level consequences of management actions. Invasive Burmese pythons (Python bivittatus) in South Florida exemplify this challenge, as…

- Density Estimates of Endangered Endemic Rodents Suggest Broader Impacts of Invasive Burmese Pythons Following a Category 4 Hurricane in the Florida Keys
Shauna Sayers, Brent S. Pease, Brandon W. McDonald et al. · Biological Diversity · 2026-05 · open access
ABSTRACT Invasive predators exert negative impacts on global biodiversity with outsized effects on island endemic species. The Burmese python ( Python bivittatus ) has recently increased in prevalence in the Florida Keys, USA, posing a threat to endemic wildlife. In 2017, Hurricane Irma made…
- Case report: observations on expulsions from 20 years of radiotransmitter implantation in adult Burmese pythons
Brandon A. Gross, Jacquelyn C. Guzy, Michael S. Cherkiss et al. · Animal Biotelemetry · 2026-04 · open access
Radiotelemetry as a research tool has advanced our understanding of snake behavior and ecology. However, surgical transmitter implantation can lead to health complications for study animals, including expulsion, which may also interfere with research objectives. Two implantation methods include…

- Beneath the skin of conservation claims by the wildlife fashion industry: a rapid evidence assessment, brief survey, & novelty stress-test on objectivity of data used by key regulatory sectors concerning four example species
Clifford Warwick, Catrina Steedman, Phillip C. Arena et al. · Frontiers in Conservation Science · 2026-01 · open access
The wildlife fashion industry involves diverse products that include animal skin, feathers, fur, and curios as part of various apparel, footwear, and many other accessories. Positive messaging by advocates of the wildlife fashion industry frequently promotes products as sustainably sourced and…
- A SECOND-DEGREE THERMAL BURN IN A BURMESE PYTHON (PYTHON BIVITTATUS) – CASE REPORT

- Patent Pulmonary Infection with the Invasive Pentastomid Raillietiella orientalis in a Panther Chameleon ( Furcifer pardalis ) in Belgium.
Hellebuyck T, Solanes-Vilanova F, Decorte B et al. · Animals : an open access journal from MDPI · 2025-11 · open access
1. Introduction Pentastomids are obligate, long-lived endoparasitic crustaceans and are considered among the earliest known metazoan parasites. Depending on the species, adult pentastomids may reach lengths up to 15 cm and inhabit the respiratory tract, primarily the nasal passages, trachea, and…
- Double agents: invasive Burmese pythons ( Python bivittatus ) and Argentine black and white tegus ( Salvator merianae ) as potential seed dispersers in South Florida

- Anatomical and Morphological Characteristics of Burmese Python (Python Molurus Bivittatus) Raised in Captivity and Pathological Changes in It
Елена Николаевна Любченко, Maxim Yu. Dyachenko, Daria A. Popova · Russian Journal of Veterinary Pathology · 2025-10 · open access
Introduction. The Burmese python (Python Molurus Bivittatus) is the third largest snake species in the world. In the wildlife, this snake breed is most often found in the countries of South and Southeast Asia, however, in recent years, these beautiful and docile reptiles have become popular around…
- Temperature drives the pace, not the price, of postprandial growth in Burmese pythons (Python bivittatus).
Last KB, Eriksen TB, Rindom E et al. · Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Part A, Molecular & integrative physiology · 2025-09 · open access
Body temperature influences all physiological processes in ectotherms, including the rise in metabolism upon feeding (SDA response). In reptiles, elevated temperatures increase the magnitude of the SDA response but shorten its duration with total energy expenditure remaining unaffected. Recent…
