    Heartbreaking Video.
    This situation happened down in Texas. Thursday these thousands of reptiles and mammals were surrendered from cruelty. These people had a big warehouse filled with these creatures and never bothered to feed anything or give anything proper care. In this video, you will see a few animals spazz out because of how hungry they were. Thousands of these reptiles and mammals died, with thousands more suffering. 500 reptiles (including 12 kikajous) came to our sanctuary (Phoenix Herpetological Society) and for 9 hours reptiles were being treated as well as the 12 kikajous. I helped out with some of the reptiles when they were being treated, and taking some snakes from the van over to be treated. The Burms (babies) were the worst and most aggressive. Three burms bit two people (twice with one volunteer, once with another). It was a pretty hectic day, and here's a heartbreaking video of the story http://blog.peta.org/archives/2010/0...al_exotics.php I think there's also a slideshow with pictures. The conditions were more than gross at this warehouse (the warehouse was as large as Cosco).

    Before posting another one, you should check around to see the other three stories on this site about this exact same thing. Also, I'm not sure I'd trust any blogs done by Peta.

    Well I just decided to post this anyways, I haven't really looked at too many posts on this yet:P I thought there might've been some posts on here about it but I didn't really think of looking yet.

I hope they are happy in their new, clean homes. The vet did get bit by one of the kikajous, and it was one nasty bite.
