Gigantic Pythons in the Everglades. Not nearly enough people are aware of it and the perfect example of what you described.

I’ve heard about this! Is it due to people releasing pets?

While it could have been a stowaway on a boat, plane, or narco sub, released pets that then had babies is the most likely source. They get absolutely massive too.
