Went to the OC Fair in Costa Mesa, CA this weekend and saw the below situation at a Reptile "Petting" Zoo being put on by Prehistoric Pets through their Jurassic Zoo group. Granted many of these animals end up in situations like this due to un-educated pet owners but this is teaching and showing young kids and adults that this is how the "professionals" keep their animals and ultimately make educating them when they do end up on the forums that much harder.

I'm still figuring out how/if I want to address this situation and am open to ideas from anyone, especially if you know or deal with the store directly and might be able to address this in a friendly manner.



They also have a Black Throat and a Salvator on display in similar set ups... if I remember correctly the 4+' salvator's cage was maybe 3' high... the fair continues through august 15 if anyone is in the area and wants to see for themselves.
