    What if H.R.669 is passed?

    I can't help but wonder: If H.R.669 is passed what do you think breeders like VPI, 8 Ball, BHB and Ralph Davis do with all their snakes? I'm sure these four breeders alone have several thousand reptiles in their collections. And what about the ASF breeders that have hundreds of breeders and pregos? What do you think they'll do with all their rodents?

    This is my least favorite part of the bill (well besides of course having to give up my pets). In a time like this, the government wants to spend precious dollars researching animals to deem them "approved" and "unapproved," while kicking hard working Americans to the streets.

    I'm like RDR I want that drilled in to their heads. I want them to bring the emails and letters in by the wheelbarrow load.

    I know it would mean the end of the exotic pet trade as a business, but my question is about the animals themselves. I'll use BHB as an example since they have over a thousand reptile of various species. If this bill is passed, what will Brian (or whoever) do with all those animals if he can't sell or transport them?

    I'm sure they're looking North (Canada).
