Please correct me if I a wrong but I think the question was intended to address the issue of taking the freedom away from a wild animal. I don't have an answer but I too struggle with that dilema with even the captive bred snakes. I would like to hear thoughts on that aspect of this question. There were only reponses to the health of wild caught and captive specimens and not on the ethics of taking the freedom of wild caught animals away.

Thanks,
Miller
