Hello Tom. It is good to see people like yourself defending the interests of many. I saw the article in Reptiles magazine about your involvment with the Florida Burmese deal. You bring up many valid points as to banning these U.S wide. Like you said it would do nothing but create bigger troubles. Due to irresponsible pet owners, bogus internet pics and U-tube, the public views all "bigs" snakes as man eaters. The state I live in (Montana)prohibits the ownership of any of the Big 5. Retics, Burms, Anacondas, African rocks and Amythestine's. This states so called panel of wildlife "experts" deemed any of these snakes would pose a health threat and could eat their sheep or something.
To one fellow herp owner to another....thank you! And you have mine as well as many others' support. Rich
