Snakes Among Us
More than 400 people and businesses in Florida are licensed to own what the state classifies as “reptiles of concern” or “venomous reptiles.” Use this database to see who has one in your neighborhood or if your neighbor has a license to keep that python or anaconda.
How To Use This Database
Enter a category to narrow your search or click “all” to see the complete database. See the key at the bottom of any results page to determine what types of animals a license holder can possess. Click “map it” to see a license holder’s location. Click a column header on a results page to rank information numerically or alphabetically.
