He told The Sun that his team has fielded more than 3,000 calls.

The 25,000-acre park is also home to hogs, bears, panthers, and alligators.

The fugitive was branded a "" by his sister

Robert Urban, the founder of the Urban Survival Academy, thinks it’s “highly unlikely” that someone who’s not professionally trained in survival tactics would be able to survive for this length of time in the Carlton Reserve.

He told : “Florida’s climate is very, very difficult. I’m an expert with plenty of experience and it would be everything that I could do to survive for (more) than three weeks.

“Someone with no experience, you cannot be lucky and survive in that sort of climate.”

Meanwhile, Jason Marsteiner, founder of The Survival University, said: “Twenty-five days in that area is extremely tough. I wouldn’t want to do it and I’ve got jungle training.”

He warned that Laundrie will not be sleeping well and said it could cause him to make bad choices.

She told : “I believe he’s going to be able to hide in his surroundings. I think he’s a learned outdoorsman and survivalist and because of that I think he will be able to stay out of law enforcement’s grasp for a while.”
