I have always wondered who makes the decision on what is endangered and what isn't.
Is it the politicians?
Is it the scientist?
How do they know?
I understand the loss of habitat and how it effects the population, but who goes and counts the population?
Reptiles are smarter than a lot of people give them credit for and if they don't want to be found, then someone's going to have a hard time finding them to count.
I live in Alabama and we have lots and lots of snakes. We know where there live, but finding one can take some serious work.
