I agree that it is abuse of the ADA by taking herps out in public and claiming them to be service animals to skirt a law. I consider these people exhibitionists.
However, if my state, county, or municipality ever passed a law making my herps illegal to own, I would definitely not hesitate to see a psychiatrist and make a claim for "accommodation" under ADA, that my reptiles, privately-owned and -kept inside my own home at all times, and never taken off my property, are indeed service animals necessary for my psychological well-being, if that would allow me to keep them legally.
