Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis helps kick of 2021 Python Challenge in the Everglades

Catch big snakes, win big prizes.

The 2021 Florida Python Challenge is almost here and Gov. Ron DeSantis is scheduled to head down to the Everglades Thursday morning to help get things started.

The goal of the challenge is to raise awareness about the invasive snake species and the threats they can pose to the state's ecology, according to the competition's website. Plus, the competition helps bring out more people to help remove Burmese pythons from the Everglades.

The completion's website says it kicks off at 8 a.m. July 9 and ends at 5 p.m. on July 18. Registration is now open and costs $25.
