As an Illinois resident and reptile keeper , the new legistlation proposed in my home state has me deeply concerned for all reptile keepers. It seems more and more states are passing laws to restrict reptile ownership. This in turn leads to less demand for all reptiles, thus limiting the value of every reptile accross the United States. In short, we as a Reptile Nation are looking at the collapse of our beloved hobby. It seems my dream of my collection becoming self sustained by breeding and selling offspring in order to expand my collection may become a distant memory. However, all is not lost. Today is the day to contact our Senators and Representatives in a professional and respectful manner in order to spread our message. Please proofread all letters and emails. I see too many posts on the forums with gross spelling errors.
