As far as bills banning certain pets go, this is better than most. If you're not keeping monitors, hots, or giants you're fine. Most of the time when people start passing laws against snakes, all constrictors get lumped into the group of banned animals.

Ball python and boa constrictor owners out there in CT, consider yourselves lucky, but keep voicing your opinion about pet owners' rights.

I think in the future we're going to see hots and giant snakes being banned in just about every state.

What I don't understand is why all these places with similar laws have it in for monitor lizards. Have they ever proven themselves to be dangerous to people or the ecosystem?

And of course banning Ts and scorps is just dumb.
