Daneby- I agree with most of what you said except, "I don't know if you are against hunting or fishing too, but if you're not do you feel that taking a fish or deer from the wild to eat is different then taking a snake to keep? Its not, they are gone from the wild either way. "
Taking a deer/fish (game species) is different than taking a herp. Even if a state agency considers herps to be 'game' species, they without a doubt, lack the appropriate information to impose 'scientifically based' bag limits (this is not the case for deer/fish). While I personally avoid collecting wild herp species, I am not completely against it. I am however against commercial collecting...
Godfrey- Great looking snake.
