I just read a few articles this past week about just that.....letting animals go into the wild. And by no means do i want to come across as a nag, but i would like to express that releasing captive non native species of anything is not only cruel to the animal, or bug but also detremental to the environment. Up here theres been a problem with people releasing exotic fish into the waterways.....fish that have adapted to life in the cold waters of Canada, setting up residence, killing off native species etc.....one such species is the piarana (?) I'm not exactly sure if this particular fish can survive up here but frankly i won't be swimming in any lake or river anymore (it was mentioned in the article). native fish have interbred with other more agressive animals and we now have very agressive Bass that go after toes as well as lures.
Just a thought.........sorry to be naggy
