I dont mean to be rude but what you are saying if full of a lot of holes. First of all captive breeding of ball pythons already helps conserve the wild population, there are not near as many imported ball pythons as there used to be. Even though it was the reptile industries fault in the first place, there is a demand for reptiles. So they can either be captive breed or taken out of the wild. When buying a lot of these reptiles you mentioned you dont even have to worry about them being wild caught anymore, isnt that a good thing?
Also I dont recall anyone saying they breed reptile morphs incase they need to be released into the wild. And do you have any clue how many normal ball pythons are still produced?
I understand where you are coming from but I think you have a lot of facts wrong. If people stopped breeding reptiles many species would take a hard hit when they became heavily imported again.
