It almost sounds like these snakes are being kept in conditions that would be considered cruel (and prosecutable?) if one of us lowly hobbyists were the owners. Ironic, isn't it?
Maybe it's a strategy to get more donations, but I find the following to be pretty disgusting coming from someone running a humane society:
-----------------
If you're one of those who's thinkin, 'snakes are creepy, why should I care?' Think about where the resources are coming from. Among the other animals at HSNT: puppies.
"We realize that (the snakes) are not necessarily warm and fuzzy little creatures. But, if we receive some help it leaves us resources for some of the warm fuzzies," said Hawley.
-----------------
There's a good solution to this overabundance of puppies and lack of money for snake food, but I won't go there...
