Saturday is Exotic Pet Amnesty Day. So if you have a big python, like one that almost killed a man in South Florida last year, you can turn it in.
Florida Fish and Wildlife says there are more than 130 non-native species now living in Florida. It hopes to cut back on that number by holding its first Exotic Pet Amnesty Day.
People can drop off their exotic pets, like snakes, fish, iguanas or birds, no questions asked. Even illegal species can be turned in without penalty.
The exotic pet amnesty is today from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Barnett Park located at 4801 W. Colonial Park Drive in Orlando.
For more information, call the Wildlife Commission at (850) 410-5291.
