Helping the importers by buying these animals even in the mere numbers that we do.If you look at it from this standpoint we're not exactly saviors like some have come to believe.Even if the importers/buyers manage to save one baby b/ps life from Africa doesnt mean that it still wont die by the hands of uncaring people,EX:Dont properly house them,keep them at too low of temps,dont know ANYTHING about them at all,etc,etc,etc.The list goes on and on.Were not gods,we cant save all of these animals from the inevitable,DYING.Whether they die over there or over here its still the same outcome,The only difference is over here we just prolong it for a longer period of time (sometimes shorter).If we are the caring herpers we have come to name ourselves, then we would let nature take its course because either way they WILL die in the end no matter what we do to help them,its natures way of saying that only the strong survive.Its been that way for the last 4 million years and it isnt going to change no matter how much we do to try.
