Melvin Cheever, right, and snake man Sam Floyd wrestle the snake out of her cage, Friday, Sept. 11, 2009 near Lake Apopka, Fla. The male python was 11 feet long, while the female was 17 feet long and weighed more than 150 pounds. Authorities say Michael T. Hall owned the snakes but did not have the required state permit to keep them. The commission lists Burmese pythons as reptiles of concern. This requires owners to purchase an annual $100 permit.
