I live in South Florida, I've seen burms on the side of the road dead before. One thing I'm a little perplexed out is: why only burms? Retics and boas pose the same risks of getting dumped into the lakes due to being too big or aggressive.... maybe burms are just cursed.

Either way, people are very stupid and gullible and they'd rather listen to the flashy "MAN EATING SNAKE ON THE LOOSE!!!!!" article than "It was the owner's fault for letting them loose in the first place, the animals have no reason to be hated"

but then we responsible , informed herpers are grouped into the stereotypes of the idiots who don't know what they're doing and only want big snakes to impress people and look cool. It's a no win situation, baby!

And that is the end of my rant. Tune in on sunday, 10/pm eastern to see me complain about something else!
