I have often heard the saying "I would rather live a year in freedom than a hundred in a cage" But I have also know that snakes who are brought to captivity live longer less stressful lives. My question is, how do you feel about taking these snakes away from their natural habitat? Are herping trips ethical? Am I robbing these creatures of their potential and freedom? I just want to do the right thing but I dont know what the right thing is.
