Laundrie had a multiple-day head start
Laundrie's family told police Friday night they have not seen the 23-year-old since Tuesday. His family told police he left home with his backpack and told them he was going to the [URL='https://twitter.com/NorthPortPolice/status/1439309309175902216']Carlton Reserve, a 25,000-acre nature reserve near Venice, Florida.
Police in North Port, Florida, tweeted Saturday that authorities were searching the reserve, an effort that included the use of drones and bloodhounds who had used articles of Laundrie's clothing taken from his home to get his scent, said police spokesperson Josh Taylor.
In a place like a nature reserve, foliage and the lack of sunlight affects visibility, according to Chris Boyer, executive director of the non-profit National Association for Search and Rescue(NASAR). The night can also hamper efforts, especially if the person being sought has no source of light or fire.
