I hear you but the HCU Constitution, Resolution 2 says what it says. HCU does not support the collection of any reptile or amphibian for the purpose of sale. That is counter to the herp industry including USARK and PIJAC.

But let's be honest here Aaron. This was done because Mr. Hibbitts talked to TPWD and they said they didn't like commercial collection. So you guys decided to brown nose them by putting this in your Constitution in hopes of getting the road ban over turned. That is just the plain and simple truth. I was there for the discussions on the gray-band forum. What is even worse to me is that many in your group buy, sell and trade wild caught. To me that is 100% hypocritical. I find this to be brown nosing and selling out the industry who supports the right to sell wild caught. The writing is on the wall. That's my opinion of it.
