Stephanie,



These boiler plate regulations tend to spread once they're passed in one area. So, stopping it in one town or county can help it from being passed in another county. I don't see why my harmless captive bred western hognosed snake should be made illegal simply for being a snake. The town is basically making all snakes illegal, except for maybe garter snakes. Where is the sense in that? Why make my snake illegal when it's not hurting any one? Why constantly limit my ability to move to another area to make a living, if I want to keep my pets? It makes as much sense as banning Yorkies and Boston terriers because someone's "pit bull" killed a child.
