All,



Thanks for the feedback from the HCU crowd. I would be interested in hearing from other folks about these issues. I know most folks who support my view don't post to forums because they are busy working but are there any folks other than HCU folks who read the forums?



Lets look at my points about PIJAC and imported animals.



Do folks agree that PIJAC supports both commercial and recreational interests despite the insistence from folks that the two groups can't come together?



How do folks who do not support the selling of wild caught native U.S. herps feel about the importation of exotic wild caught herps? Is that okay or do we shut down everything and close any hope of new blood, different localities, new species in the trade and new morphs?
