2003年至2008年，在美国佛罗里达的大沼泽地国家公园采集了85条缅甸蟒蛇（Pythonmolurusbivittatus）的消化道标本，鉴定出25种鸟类，分别代表9个鸟类目。在这项研究中确定的四种鸟类是佛罗里达特别关注的，第五种是林鹳（Mycteria americana），被列为联邦濒危物种。这是第一次详细分析的饮食的引进缅甸蟒蛇，现在建立在大沼泽地国家公园，佛罗里达的鸟类成分，并强调了潜在的相当大的负面影响，这种入侵物种对本地鸟类种群。2010年6月9日收到。2010年9月27日接受，
We identified 25 species of birds representing nine avian Orders from remains in digestive tracts of 85 Burmese pythons (Python molurus bivittatus) collected in Everglades National Park, Florida, USA, from 2003 to 2008. Four species of birds identified in this study are of special concern in Florida and a fifth, the Wood Stork (Mycteria americana), is listed as federally endangered. This represents the first detailed analysis of the avian component of the diet of the introduced Burmese python, now established in Everglades National Park, Florida and highlights the potential for considerable negative impact of this invasive species on native bird populations.
