In the past the fish and game would offer snakes for sale in the bend area. I passed up on some offers during operation Rock Cut. Good thing as he was an indercover agent. They also do it in California quite often. They could get on this page or the classifieds and use it as a tool to bust people. They could post pictures of locality snakes for sale. In the process of the deal you might ask the exact locality, or cut they were caught on and the date the parents were caught. Because this is information people want now days. He might say they were caught off a cut just 5 miles East of Sanderson two years ago. If you buy the snake without realizing or thinking anything more of it, you are in violation of the law. This would not be good in our effort to change the way we hunt snakes in Texas. SO BE CAREFUL OUT THERE!! Thanks...Ric
P.S. The new explosion of record keeping and ease of doing so became more serious with the internet, and ease of use. Also, big time with the invention and use of the digital camera.
