"One study suggests that in Everglades National Park, pythons have reduced the population of raccoons, opossums, deer and other mammal species by 90 percent."

I find that very hard to believe considering feral cats have destroyed more wildlife than burms or any other snake.

That is not the study itself, but another article on the study. I have yet to find the full text of the study spoken about in the article I posted.
