>>Gordon Rodda is one person.

SIGH

My Apologies.

REED/Rodda

While you blame the python folks, remember there was a proposal to ban ALL TURTLES in CA this week that thankfully was changed to ban import of them for food. Also Remember HR669 is still out there, while not making any movement, it is still a viable bill, just sitting there stagnant. I personally have no financial interest in the large pythons, I dont even own one, but I see the issue as a stepping stone. This is NOT a python situation, it is an animal rights problem. This will expand above and beyond pythons.

Here is a link to one article that these pythons bans are being based on. For the rest, take the time to go to the Herp Law center. This was the basis for HR2811. S373 was based on a later paper. Neither had proper peer review and have been further debunked. This is so to speak the thing that started this all.

As I said, take time to look through all the papers posted on the Herp Law Forum.
First REED/Rodda python paper
