Well he should have known better. Most people do these shows for the fame and notoriety. They don't think about the damage it may cause the herp industry or they don't care. Many "herpers" have BIG egos and they think that what they do is okay. For instance, a guy from Austin bought wild caught snakes from a commercial collector and then went before the TPWD Commission and bad mouthed commercial collectors. This is rampant in the herp industry. This being, hypocrisy.

We need to band together and admit what we do and why we do it. Not sell out different aspects of the industry for a perceived personal gain. Those that are against us want to pull us a part. Don't be a sell out. Be smart!
