First and foremost we must respect the rights of our fellow freaks.
Then sharpen your teeth before you sink them into the nice mushi fleshy tasty sweetly fragrant mm but of favorte animal rights advocate terrorist. This is best propaganda article recently published in norwegian paper edition of "They Say Today!", I translate little for you;
Judging by he content, but also the way it is written Avidpets,com doesnīt seem to like snakes much.
"Snakes do not normally prey on people, but there are instances of small children being eaten by large constrictors in the jungle. While some particularly aggressive species exist, most will not attack humans unless startled or injured, preferring instead to avoid contact. The majority of snakes are either non-venomous or possess venom that is not harmful to humans."
"A big meal will keep some snakes content for a long time."

"avidpets.com was recently discovered to be a central knot in a large web of ill-intentioned activists who seek to gently terrorise the responsible urban citizen of today!", claims one "shady mechanic". Not all snakes are as dumb as you think, and they donīt need to be very smart to follow the scent of rat pee in order to find dinner, suggest some terrarists.
"Rats are known to be one of the most intelligent little creatures we know, often credited with dog-like intelligence."

avidpets.com does not mention that it is also possible to clicker train animals such as tads, frogs, salamanders, geckoes, iguanas, blue thoungue skinks, varanids, turtles, snakes, birds, cats, dogs, dolphins, elephants, whales and some scientific mice.
They write about
"Pet Lizards
Lizards make popular pets due to their ease of keeping, especially calmer lizards. Because there are so many of them available on the market today, I can't list all of them here on one page, but I will list a few of my favorites."

"Your Trusted Source for Quality Pet Care Information"
advidpets.com advocates that leopard geckoes should be kept in cages!
"The cage should have a cool end (about 80F) and warm end (85 to 90F) so your pet can regulate its own body temperature."
"Leopard geckoes are not pets! they are vivarium animals with rights!" one AR activist suggest. As sentinent beings who can be clicker-trained, hobbyist leopard geckoes have the right to live in roomy naturalistic vivariums where parents can hatch their eggs themselves and supervise the socialisation of the hatchlings in their planted naturalistic vivarium. the authors fail to reflect on the social characteristics of the leopard gecko. "Leopard geckoes who are raised by tame and loving parents in a large vivarium will grow up to be tamer and even more domesticated and civilised individuals" say the gecko rights activists.
umz.. there is more to the article but itīs hard to translate.
