Where is all this hostility coming from? Not all of us can turn to rescue/adoption full time.

"Breed rescues" fullful a needed roll in the comunity. I pull turtles from a local shelter - their chances of adoption at the shelter would be slim to none if they weren't pulled by a reptile society. Some of them are victims of abuse, abandoment, appartment evictions, owner death, hoarder cases, ect. What is wrong with pulling from shelters? They often can't spot respiratory problems or other illnesses in reptiles. Would you feel better if this group called themselves "adoptions" instead?

What do you consider a "true" rescue?
