Burmese Python

The silent strangler of the Grassrivers.

Warning

INVASIVE

Hard to spot in tall grass. Ambush predator.

The Burmese Python represents one of the biggest ecological threats in Leonida. Originally brought in as exotic pets and released into the wild, these massive constrictors have decimated the local mammal population.

In GTA 6, expect pythons to function as stealth traps. Unlike the loud alligator, the python waits silently in dense vegetation. They are the target of specific "Cull Missions" (similar to the real-life Florida Python Challenge), where players are paid to hunt them down.
