Excellent comments from Day. Thanks. I agree, NatGeo has become a fairly useless rag with low regard for fact checking and accuracy. Focus on subscription revenue to a public that accepts whatever it publishes with glossy pictures.
I also agree with your comments about beach front snakes. I've found corn snakes crawling up the sides of beach hotels. The occasional white oak gray rat - which seem to be the lightest I've seen in the upper panhandle. And in the proper habitat some years ago I found a couple L. "goini" within view of the surf. Never ever an Eastern hog.
Sadly, much of the public will swallow this story (and other stories) as fact because it appeared in NatGeo.
