I would rather see someone collect a few snakes from the wild (if they manage to find them, I've never found a snake when purposely hunting them, those I found were accidental rescue finds...better they live here in their cushy tank than to have ended up under lawnmower blades. What I think is heinous is people who kill snakes for no reason except to kill it just because it's a snake. I think that all the snakes collected from the wild by enthusiasts, is a number probably far smaller than the number of snakes killed by snake haters.
