Florida’s python capture competition

BBC World Service - Weekend, Florida’s python capture competition

Burmese pythons in Florida Everglades are disrupting the ecosystem

Burmese pythons in Florida Everglades are disrupting the ecosystem.

For the next two weeks, the US state of Florida will host its annual Python Capture Competition. Burmese Pythons appeared in the wild after being kept as pets.

Also, Israel has killed a second top militant from the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group.

And why female artists are paid so much less than male artists.

Joining Paul Henley today are: Imogen West-Knights, a writer and journalist based in London; and Marcus Chown, a science writer, journalist, and broadcaster also based in London.
