Overview

• Brooke Rollins participated in a nighttime python hunt in the Florida Everglades and posted a series of photos on X showing her handling a captured Burmese python.
• She quoted Taylor Swift’s 'Look What You Made Me Do' alongside a snake emoji to frame the hunt as part of invasive species control.
• Rollins said the hands-on experience demonstrated how Burmese pythons disrupt the Everglades ecosystem and underscored the need for population management.
• Fresh photos echo previous publicity stunts by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who has shared her own wildlife trophy images to draw media attention.
• Florida allows public and private hunts to thin the invasive python population, which has posed significant ecological threats over the past decade.
