"Dangerous" is a subjective descriptive term...a very slippery slope.
Most informed people do not consider most of the reptiles in question as dangerous.

Quote "When you buy a large predator, you immediately sign a death certificate - for you or the animal," Harrison said. "In all the years of doing this, I have never had a happy ending." end quote.

We all die...all animals die...captive, pet, or wild. Never seen a happy ending is an opinion by someone who "spends much of his time running down animals that have escaped or been released by owners who no longer can deal with them.". That statement in itself does not qualify that person's opinion. The "released can no longer care for"...is standard boiler plate HSUS drivel...unworthy of serious consideration.
