A relatively new article on one of many media sites, it was written by Michael Markarian of the Humane Society Legislative Fund. Nonetheless, being only hours old, nobody's posted comments saying how good eating snakes are, how we should ban them, snake keepers are idiots, blah blah blah. That being said, feel free to bash the author, HSUS, and its myriad of incorrect facts. The more educated and calm you look, and the more references you have, the better you help with damage control and the less harm these animal rights activists cause to the herp community.
And yes, many people do read comments.
