Re: An ideal rpetile regualtions
wow nixie...it is refreshing to see someone that actually does have an open mind. :gj:
Im not sure about any of this. One part of me says...ok lets come up with with a comprimise. Unfortunately it just doesnt stop there. I agree with the poster that said government is already too big. Comprimising with them would only make them bigger.
Another part of me would love mandatory training...it kills me these parents that let their kids or ppl in general that go out and get something they have no idea how to take care of and the animal suffers or dies. But again...you give an inch...ppl take a mile. So with all that said....I have no clue. I do know the government needs to stay away from my pets!! And I wish they would take the time to acutally get realistic information that is scientifically sound. But you can poo in one hand ....and wish in another...you still have a handful of poo wishes. (or however that saying goes)lol
I know my 9 year old wants an albino boa. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!! He is no way or shape ready to take care of something like that and either am I. Kids need to rely on parents to teach them these things. Sure I would love a Black and White Lemur....a big cat....a wallaby....etc. But you have to be realistic as to what you can safely care for ....safely for the animal and the owner.
Re: An ideal rpetile regualtions
ok I guess was a bad ideal I didn't want to start a debate I was just looking for examples of some other members regulations in there area to may be creata blue print to help make possible guild lines so when they are shoved down our face the lost is a possible minium..
Like the curernt DE regulations that you can't breed any reptile that requires apermit ( without being a acredited zoo) THis regulation is totally unfair and possible against constution( speelling incase it way off that big fameous paper from national treasure movies lol) Since I do believe that prohibiting a person is surpressing their 1st amendment rights of a form of free speech.
I wanted to come up with somethign that could also be forward to other goverment officals incase the regulations were scrapped and redone. THis would be done as a combine printing of all the regs/ permits reqwuirements from around the world in oure case to show how others are regulated and to prove we all take out pet right seriously.
As for what is consider a big snake ( i think ) this could be done by the need of more than a single person to handle the snake in asafe matter for both owner and snake as a alrge snake cause there no shame in having to ammit to needing help hesll I am disable and ask mom or other to give me a hand al lthe time ( it a pain getting up and down out of the floor as I need waterjug refill to fill bowls and trying to hold open a trash bag, scoop out old shaveing and keep the rats from trying to jump out) it takes 3 hand to hold the bag alone open..
