The idea to take rare species from the wild to reproduce them for protection or prevention reasons is surely a right one,but honestly, who does keep rare species for that reason?I have not met a private keeper who let go of his precious offspring into the wild but to other keepers for high money.I guess a snake does live a less stressful live in captivity if kept the right way though.
In my opinion its up to you if you get captive breds or wild caughts.I prefer captives because they are used to being held in cages and ususally dont cause problems regarding to parasites etc.
If you are looking for locality specifics,you may have to go the wc way.
