I wasn't forgetting that. That's why I admitted that captive environments are not the same as wild environments. I think my point still stands: " ...there are already plenty of natural history studies that indicate what habitats are suitable for retics and we already know much of the US is not."
What's happening here is a good example of why we have states, counties, etc. Different parts of the country dona't always have the same problems and the same needs.
In many parts of the country the only function a nationwide ban on interstate transport would have would be to decrease the overall marketability of these snakes. This is why I consider it an attack on the hobby rather than just a neccessary solution to a problem.
