We are the Everglades Avenger Team
The Everglades Avenger Team is dedicated to eliminating as many invasive Florida Burmese Pythons as possible. We can use your help!
Featured on the news and on TV Worldwide
Donna Kalil is the leader of the Everglades Avenger Team. After catching her first Florida Burmese python on Christmas night 2015 with her family in tow, she has eliminated more than 700 pythons from South Florida Ecosystems. Several had up to 75 eggs in them! "The impact that these invasive animals are having on our wildlife is astounding and every one we eliminate from our natural ecosystem is a step in the right direction".
It takes persistence and perseverance to find these apex predators and the journey is a perilous one. Join our team to help protect our native wildlife.

We are not going to be able to catch and remove all the pythons that are in South Florida, we can only hope to slow their spread and give relief to the animals in the areas we patrol. But hopefully, through scientific analysis we will come up with a solution.

Dont let it Loose! If you or someone you know has an exotic pet such as a snake or lizard or for that matter even a domestic pet like a dog, cat or rabbit, please do not let it loose and think you are doing it a favor. They likely will not survive in the wild. If they can survive then they can destroy delicate ecosystems like the Burmese Python has done to our beloved Everglades. http://www.dontletitloose.com/

June 8, 2018 11:30 p.m. I found a 4 ft, 4 lb Ball python at the entrance to Everglades National Park, Shark Valley. His owner let him go thinking he was doing him a favor but in reality, had I not come along when I did, he would have been gator food. The poor thing was scared stiff and didn't move when I approached him. So I named him Benny and took him home. He is now a part of my family.
