If they were not interested in including all boas and pythons and condas they would have listed the species in general, which they did not. If they weren't going to list boas they would have just stated pythons and eunectes. It is my belief that they intend to do just what they stated "boas, pythons and eunectes". The USFW is being eliminated and by creating laws for them to enforce, they are trying to keep their jobs. The only area that these snakes can establish themselves is south florida and we have laws here to protect from any further introduction. This is a blatent attack at our freedoms and if anyone sits back and says "well they won't effect anything I keep" they are greatly mistaken. The same thing happened here in florida with the species of concern permits. Originally they gained enough complacency by stating that they would just require a simple permit and all of the listed species would have to be "chipped". Well now we must have evacuation plans, escape plans, transport plans, capture plans (including drugs and catch equipment, can you say hands, lol). They are also requiring inventory lists and updates quarterly if inventory changes. Give them an inch and they take a mile. We cannot let this law pass regardless if they change it to just say the large constrictors. What constitutes a large constrictor? One that gets over 6 ft? We never know what the final wording will be and that is why we must fight this NOW!!!
