haha exactly! seriously if u watch that episode (im no monitor expert but i know a few things) this dude and the show are both *insert true feelings here*.. the description of the show said he had 7 nile monitors.. lol 2 might have been niles and where juvies.. the rest where btm and savanahs.. he never caged em and fed em on carpeted rooms (umm gross/disease ridden much) and darn near froze the things at 80 degrees.. and for knowing so much about monitors (which the show said he did) how did he allow him self to get into these habbits? the whole show should be taken off the air! iv watched a few and wanna punch myself in the face.. lol from the lady who had 20+ hots for her first reptiles to the guy with the 13ft burm who was starving and being handled drunk.

i in noway mean to disrepect the dead, i mearly comment on there practices when alive which where not acceptable, the only thing that show has that is good are the true experts and people who know what there doing with real life experience and not payed actors cramming mainstream media down the uneducated throats

LOL this is funny to me. getting bitten amoung other things led to the infection he let them free roam his apartment, mulitple Large liz and monitors pooping and just living in your one bedroom apartment is silly especially if you arent a freaking neat freak. guys an idiot enough said. and I love that show it doesnt depict reptile keepers as crazy, just crazy animal hoarders or thrill seekers as crazy LOL think about it. wolf lady-CRAZY, Liz guy- CRAZY, HOT OWNERS Ing general-CRAZY in there own right, BIG CAT PEOPLE- CRAZY. everyone can whine about tv but its about social norms, keeping dangerous animals is not normal bottom line.

The show should be renamed "Darwin Candidates" :D

OMG What an idiot. Did he have rattle snakes and black widows too? Why would anyone keep something that could easily eat a child, as a pet? I'll Stick with my domestics! Oh and of course my handsome Mayhem!

Who are you, or anyone, to judge what people keep as pets? This is the problem the industry has. People thinking its okay to judge what other people keep as pets.

If your going to judge many people in the hobby for keeping venomous or any animal that could potentially harm them, then leave your remarks somewhere else.

Your domestics pose just as much of a danger to you as exotics. So please get off your high horse please and stop judging the keepers.

How is it a joke. Why can you judge anyone us by what pets we keep? By judging people who keep exotics your judging yourself.

No one has the right to tell anyone what pets they keep. It is their perogative if they want to keep potentiall deadly species. IF they die then thats their fault, you dont have the right to stop them from doing that.

are u kidding listen to your self. ITS CALLED THE GOVERNMENT LMAO. come on man. dont rage and respond with emotion. the person probably was implying these people on fatal attraction are pushing the limits and boundaries that have been implemented to protect them. I mean states such as texas allow people to own all kinds of crazy animals LARGE CATS and such Im not to versed in the legislation but i do know they can own monkeys and tigers and stuff. these are exotic and dangerous. And who are you to tell anyone what they can own? well maybe their a person concerned about there wellbeing when some wild animal is threatening there lives.


THEREFORE I said your post was a joke, a little emotional and not well thought out. Im not trying to cause conflict it just seemed as if you were bullying a poster for there opinion, and attempting to force them to believe in yours with negative remarks. Remember this thread is in response to a tv show where people die from there poor care and extreme interests in there EXOTIC animals. PEACE :)

lmao.. cmon now coast get off your highhorse.. your goverment thats imposing these restrictions are based on lies and false truths which is exactly whats wrong with this country today.. take the burm invasion 100s of thousands? umm no... how many hunters liscences where issued and how many people got kills? exactly.. theres no invasion and the burm cannot survive ANYWHERE in the united states except the southern tip of florda yet theres a possible there moving into washington and survive on saltwater? umm no the goverment has NO right to tell me what i as an animal keeper can and cannot keep.. the states have more of a right to ban species then the federal goverment read up on your constituion and bill of rights...

this thread has a ton of oppinions that are wrong... how many hot keepers are there that have never been bite? A TON!!! because there is no reason to be bite.. ill say that again there is NO reason to be bite by a hot.. if the proper precautions are taken a good keeper will never be bite but will have 3 plans inplace of a bite.

and as for those who look down on a fellow herper.. you discust me and shouldent be in this hobby.. everyone has to start somewere and this hobby seems to think people need to explain themselves which is rediculous.. let the responsable be and help educate the uneducated.. its just that simple

my high horse LOL come on SON! im not versed in the constitution or bill of rights. but I do know that it does not make any sense to own venomous animals in my opinnion which is exactly that an opinion. also I think that owning POTENTIALLY dangerous animals is more of a pissing contest than anything. more of a childish look at my cool toy lol get over your self people now adays are allways trying to push the limits of society, we have to realize that the things we do such as owning a tiger or a venomous animal could potential affect other peoples lives than our own. As a tax payer Im glad that I live in Ca and that crazy people who could potentially be neighbors cant own large cats or monkeys or even venomous animals. thats all im saying. my point in above posts was that the government/ and state have the right to tell u waht u can and cant own obviously! thats just common knowledge, this is hilarious. I believe the quote was " who are you to tell me what I can and cant own, no one has that right" some thing along those lines. WELL NEWS FLASH CHIEF STATE AND FED LAW. LOL :colbert:


also we "discust" you im sorry. this THREAD IS ABOUT FATAL ATTRACTIONS and how the people on that show are dead cause they are ignorant and cant correctly take care of there animals or have animals they are not capable of keeping. thats why we joked about the darwan awards. do u have a relative on the show, i dont get your absolute "disgust" regarding our convo?
