A disturbing trend, really disturbing

FYI I don't approve of that whole taking countless out for the purpose of reselling them. I do approve of taking a base group out to provide a colony and occasionally releasing a few and taking a few more out of the wild to provide different genes. That's my 2 cents

Yes Stefan. It's impossible for anyone to decide just what that means. But carelessness. I think is obvious.

Certain cases of carelessness may be obvious to most, but there's always going to be a very wide grey zone.

At least until somebody makes it quantifiable.

[GartersRock]

Yep. Pretty much. When it comes to that grey zone. There will always be disagreement.

That's my 2 cents

That's the great thing about Tham.com Bryan, 2 cents is always welcome.

Releasing snakes back into the wild is not a good thing.especially if they are in captivity for a long period of time.

[GartersRock]

I agree. But I don't feel very to strongly about it. I mean, it doesn't bother me really when people do it.

Please elaborate, since this thread was intended to invoke heavy thought

[GartersRock]

Heavy thoughts... Me like!

I have released ALL but two of my WC snakes into the wild.. Not because I thought it was good or bad but because the native species laws suck up here.. I probably broke the law twice who knows.. I cant even get a possesion permit WTF!

I have seen the snakes I released a few times now and they seem to be doing just fine. I do know there are arguments about health issues being introduced into the wild.

Double sided sword for me really
