who here has seen swamp wars on animal planet?

So who here watches swap wars on animal planet? its about a fire department and a venomous snake department that goes out and catches python from the everglades that come in to the town and how people just let their deadly snakes loose

Every one of those shows have the same agenda about pet owners releasing snakes in the glades. It doesnt help a thing for snake owners especially in florida. And ive lost alm respect for greg grazianni because his show promotes it even worse. I cant believe someone like him would be roped into something like that

I watched it on demand just the other day. I saw something about pythons and couldn't help but watch. While I understand that this problem exists in Florida, I think some of it is over the top for viewer ratings. I also couldn't help but notice at one point when he's talking about a burmese python stalking children, they used a normal ball python to fill in. Not good! I like some of the information, especially about the cotton mouth, but it is going to make a lot more people way more terrified of snakes in my opinion.

I like the guys from venom 1. I don't like the producers or editors for either show! I've watched python hunters but don't really care for it. I think its mostly about drawing peoples curiosity and making money.

[kyser/wrx]

I like the show cause its something to watch . I just like too see how big of a snake they can catch,

Maybe Greg Graziani is trying to fight against irresponsible owners and breeders. I can see a reason for the show but it has its Pros and Cons.

This is not a problem because of people releasing there snakes. That is what the media makes it out to be. The problem came because of mother nature and hurricane andrew. It is easy to flip it on snake owners though.

[MidSouthMorphs]

Somewhat true, but their are alot of poeple that release snakes that get to big. Their are more irresponsible owners than responsible ones. Alot of poeple are impulse buyers not knowing what they are getting into when they purchase large species of snakes.

Just like in my area, a few years a ago a park ranger in a small wildlife reserve was taking water sample in a lake and a 14 foot Anaconda swam by his boat, it most likely didn't survive the winter. The problem is mainly irresponsible snake owners.

[MidSouthMorphs]
