    I personally think it's sad that so many snakes are imported just for people to keep.

    Superballs - I see... it's a serious subject and no one should disagree with you. Here's a quick fact... importing is a touchy subject with lots of people on either side of the idea, and a lot of folks in between who feel importing of some should stop, but only if it's a certain species.. or only gravids.

    You posted comments, and it's getting discussed. YOUR posts will be read and commented on as well as the idea itself. And totally off-topic.. why do you constantly capitalize "Me" in your posts? Is it to emphasize that only your opinion should be agreed with in the thread? Is it just to emphasize that it's just YOUR opinion, and not a fact? I'm just wondering, because I rarely see people capitalize the word "Me" like that.

    Curious is,

    SUPERBALLS, do you end every post with an insult to someone? Grow up? Go back to high school? So, anyone who has a differing opinion from yours needs to "grow up?"

    If everyone thinks the same way, why do we need these forums?

    And my high school taught punctuation. :colbert:

    And yet this is how the hobby of keeping almost every animal started.

    Can't you just picture all of those African trappers out in the bush with their sexing probes and portable ultrasound machines looking for gravid females?

    I would caution the participants of this thread to be careful about the insults. Consider this a warning.

    Everyone should be able to present their position on the subject without resorting to name calling and personal insults.

    Of course, this is true.

    I love my snakes but just think that the importation of snakes is a little overdone. After all, KEEPING snakes should be a bonus. Snakes not here for us, they're here because Mother Nature intended it so.

    Keep in mind, depending on religious beliefs, even that may not be true.
