"The incident has heightened biologists' fears that the nonnative snakes could threaten a host of other animal species in the Everglades."

This statement doesn't make sense. I see one very dead snake. A snake that bursts while eating alligators is no threat to alligators.

I sure wouldn't want to come across one in the swamp, but even if the gator is dead, there's a lot more gators in the everglades than there are non native snakes.

Your statement doesn't make sense. The quote you were refering to talking about 'a host of other animal species'. Not just alligators and many other these other species aren't quite the match for a python an alligator is.
