    And it's certainly NOT inevitable. Not if we care, so do we??? We are all here on this forum because we care about snakes & other animals but there's a "big picture" we
    must not ignore. Much as I love it when wild creatures end up in my yard, I do NOT love the reason they are there...that all too often their natural habitat has been
    destroyed by man's inhumanity to nature.

    Too bad the people in charge with all the money could care less about animals and our beautiful earth. I think most of the world could use a do over with their whole government, lets get some people in those seats that care about the world it’s self and the animal species that only get one opportunity on this planet. You can’t forget actual freedom too Rant over lol

    I’m proud of your Mom for taking the effort to relocate it.
