The whole "dump" line IS the medias story.
Has a person here or there released a python in S. FL
Probably so. But the majority I believe were released by natural disaster. I don't believe 5000 or 500 or even 50 people have purposely let their snake go. Maybe I'm naive.
I think the word dump for our purposes needs to mean released into the wild. Or even set free in an urban environment.
With that definition in mind were your Amazons dumped or turned into a shelter. There are many reasons for an expensive dog to end up at a shelter particularly if it had already been spayed or neutered. Once again giving to a shelter or an amnesty day is much different than throwing your pet python over your back fence. D.C.
