in reference to the final statement in that article I would like to point out that unless you were grandfathered in with venomous snakes several years ago it is illegal to keep venomous snakes in NYS. Like I said it has been that way for several years. I had a nile monitor for 16 years and I used to joke about how I could not return to NY with a lizard that I bought there. Of course he would be illegal here in Fl. as well now but he's been dead a few years so the FWC can stuff their freakin micro chip and their end run around my fourth amendment rights and their freakin "fees" to keep your private property.
Ironically enough here in FL. you can get a venomous permit and keep hots but you can no longer get a permit to keep anything on their ROC list none of which are venomous.
I love the weather here in Fl. but I'm really starting to miss Texas, too bad you'd have an easier time selling a pile of cow crap here in Fl. than you would selling your house.
