The Ohio Association of Animal Owners (OAAO) and Zoo Association of America (ZAA) are in support of private exotics ownership and trade, although they consist primarily of the exotic mammal folks. I am though not entirely certain how much of their membership base or to what extent of their involvement in the process involve or include reptiles. The USSA (US Sportsmens Alliance) is the natioanl trade association for the hunters and other outdoor sportsmen, and although I do not know what their position is on exotic animal ownership, they are very much opposed to PETA, HSUS, and the other Animal Rights groups.
This of course does not mean that I am not disppointed that PIJAC, USARK, and the reptile industry are not being specifically represented as stakeholders for this process.
