Florida deploys robot rabbits to track invasive Burmese pythons

The record

Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.

Florida authorities have started deploying AI-powered, solar-powered robot rabbits in the Everglades to lure invasive Burmese pythons out of hiding.
The decoys mimic real prey and alert officials when a python is detected, enabling quick removal.
The technology adds to existing efforts such as the annual Python Challenge competition, and more than 19,000 pythons have been removed from the Everglades since 2000.
The effort matters because Burmese pythons are an invasive species threatening the region's ecosystem.
