Data from: Homing of invasive Burmese pythons in South Florida: evidence for map and compass senses in snakes
Navigational ability is a critical component of an animal's spatial ecology and may influence the invasive potential of species. Burmese pythons (Python molurus bivittatus) are apex predators invasive to South Florida. We tracked the movements of 12 adult Burmese pythons in Everglades National...

description | Navigational ability is a critical component of an animal's spatial
ecology and may influence the invasive potential of species. Burmese
pythons (Python molurus bivittatus) are apex predators invasive to South
Florida. We tracked the movements of 12 adult Burmese pythons in
Everglades National Park, six of which were translocated 21–36 km from
their capture locations. Translocated snakes oriented movement homeward
relative to the capture location, and five of six snakes returned to
within 5 km of the original capture location. Translocated snakes moved
straighter and faster than control snakes and displayed movement path
structure indicative of oriented movement. This study provides evidence
that Burmese pythons have navigational map and compass senses and has
implications for predictions of spatial spread and impacts as well as our
understanding of reptile cognitive abilities. |
