While many native species in ecosystems where Burmese pythons are present have experienced declines, particularly in the Florida Everglades, some species have not shown significant declines and may even thrive in those environments. Species that have adapted well or are less affected by pythons often include larger, more formidable predators or resilient species. However, it's important to note that research in this area is ongoing, and the impacts of Burmese pythons on native fauna can vary widely based on numerous ecological factors.
Species like raccoons and opossums, for example, have shown varying population trends, but some large mammals and birds of prey may not face the same risks as smaller mammals or birds that are more heavily predated upon by pythons.
