Those China town meat markets really piss me off! Sorry, there's no nice way to say it! It makes my blood boil to know what goes on there and nothing is being done about it! If it were Sparky or Fluffy being treated like a piece of meat, you'd have animal activists or the SPCA doing something about it but for some freakin' reason, no-one with any authority will do anything for reptiles! Your doing a good thing by rescuing the softie and I congratulate you for your effort! If I lived close to one of those disgusting 'markets of death', I'd go broke from trying to rescue them all! Something needs to be done about this and soon! I just can't understand why someone would want to torture and kill one of the most amazing species of animal on the face of this earth! Sometimes I really hate my own species! Sorry....just had to get that off of my chest! ~ Christy



Does anyone know where the Chinatown in NYC is located? I may be taking a trip soon.....
