We have read many of the comments that are being sent. Some have stated that the giants need to be regulated. If you allow them to ban the giants, what will be next?!?!?! Comments should be a general statement about pythons and boas, not that it would be ok to ban the giants, but leave the little snakes alone. Soon all the little snakes will get targeted too.

We keep ball pythons, boas and burms. We are in Colorado.... there is no way that any of these can live here in the wild, even in the summer as our lows drop down into the 60's even on the warmest days.

Florida already has regulations in effect that include permits and microchiping of all large snake species. Florida's Everglades is the only enviornment in the Continential United States that can sustain a population of non-native species, so it would not be fair to give up the giants across the board.

If you give them an inch, they WILL take a mile.
