that's my preferred way to contribute...not by breeding more, but making sure that the snakes we have in the wild, as well as the ones people choose
to keep as pets, are respected, valued & properly cared for. Doesn't matter what age, little children to grandparents have held my snakes & found out
they aren't scary or out to 'get' them, that instead they are just shy & beautiful creatures to appreciate.
It is also nice to take my large girls and let people who love them but cant afford a large animal have the fun of holding one and watching them grow. I have always had a huge passion for animals. I would have a zoo if I could afford it and do it properly. I started as a young child learning about animals and have worked hard to educate myself through the years on many animals and am a biologist at heart. My job has none thing to do with animals now though but the education continues. I wanted to be a Marine Biologist when I first went to collage. My parents discouraged me till I dropped out year 3 and went into the Army. Now (2 degrees later) I work on medical equipment and have animals as a hobby.
