The snake, named Lt. Bernice by the Marco Civil Air Patrol squadron, is an 8-foot female Burmese python. Bernice will be displayed at Everglades Outpost for educational purposes for the rest of her life. Aldecoa said she would make a good display snake because she is aggressive and doesn't mind striking at an outstretched finger.
