Invasive Species: Inside America’s Exotic Animal Crisis | My America
Florida is ground zero for one of the most overlooked crises in America — the spread of invasive exotic animals.

Nathan investigates how creatures like Burmese pythons and green iguanas have transformed Florida’s natural habitat — and why the law is still catching up. Are we doing enough to protect America’s native wildlife? And should anyone really be allowed to own a tiger?
