Disgusted with Animal Planet

[GarterGuy17]

Maybe we could get other forums or reptile community's alike to get involved in this and not just our small garter family here. This could really make a change with enough people is what I keep thinking we should find people that support this idea rather than people that support the snake "genocide " occurring now.

The final paragraph of the article:

"The good news for the Rattlesnakes is that the roundups are on the decline. Over the past decade, some Texas roundups have ceased operation due to either a lack of interest, a lack of snakes or snake hunters. The irrational fear of snakes may also be on the decline, due to the influence of science and education about these majestic animals. We can only hope that by the time most people, including the organizers and patrons of rattlesnake roundups, realize these animals are worth conserving, there are some rattlesnakes left to conserve"

How can so many people find pleasure in rounding up thousands of innocent snakes out of their home, throwing them in a pit, and slaughtering them one by one. The crowds as big as football game and just as loud. It makes me sik

You're right Jesse...it's disgusting. I don't get it either. I think it's fear...people are afraid of the snakes so they think it gives them control...it makes them feel like they are overcoming the fear...but it's stupid. It's small minded people that are too ignorant to think on a level that allows them to see that what they are doing doesn't make any sense. And they are unable to see why they do the things they do in the first place. There really is no reasoning with ignorance.
