SO.....I watched a show last night on pet owners. It was an episode of National Geographic's Taboo.
I was really upset by the last portion of the show. I am not sure if you would be able to view it on YOUTUBE. I am sure you could because they have everything on there.
Anyway...the last portion was on snake (exotic) owners. They spent more time talking about how DEADLY they were rather than what a joy they are to have as pets. The show preceeded to talk about anti-venom squads in Florida and all the horrible things that have happened to ppl with snake and exotic animals.
However, during the dog portion of the show they never discussed some of the awful things that have happened to dog owners. I thought the show to be extremely biased.
I myself am the owner of a new BP and a dog (and a cat and two parakeets lol).
I just don't think that the HERP world was represented very well at all. They even interviewed a man that said the only reason why ppl own exotics is to be different and have the thrill of
owning a dangerous pet.
I guess I just needed to vent.....
