"personally, i don't see a need for hogs to ever be hit by any regulations. we will see though."



A local show at the end of this month has these restrictions in place.



"No venomous reptiles (*). This includes rear-fanged species, such as, but not limited to, vine snakes. These are against Round Rock city ordinance. Round Rock Animal Control -will- be at the event and -will- issue citations to anyone in violation. (*) Special dispensation has been requested and granted by the city of Round Rock to allow the sale of Hognose Snakes and Madagascar Cat-eyed Snakes (Heterodon, Leioheterodon, Lystrophis, and Madagascarophis species).."



Now this is a small suburb town of Austin....so it's starting! Luckily the exemption covers Hog's.



I'm sure there are going to be more and more of these type of ordinances popping up which include big constrictors. All from a few bad incidents that are pushed in the news.
