Like how the big companies are allowed to sell their pollution emission quotas?
Not too many people are aware of that I'll bet.
I've been collecting reptiles for years commercially and for
a hobby. Can I be grandfathered in? I should be but I don't want
to see something like that because I would still like to see other people be allowed to go out into the wilds and collect herps.
What I was trying to state in my last couple of posts is that
as big as you think our industry/herp community is we are a very
small group of individuals. What we take from the wild is
very small compared to what is taken by hunters and fishermen.
How many snakes do you think are killed by hunters and fishermen each year? Maybe they shouldn't issue fishing and hunting licenses.
I very very rarely run into any herpers in the wild......probably 3 in the last 30 years of collecting. However; I run into plenty of hunters.
