I've actually lived in Wyoming before, and we are most likely moving back there in a few years, business and all...for the very reason that the reptile laws are virtually nonexistant, land is cheap, and both are likely to remain that way.

It is the least-populated State in the US. Wyoming folks like their independence, and even the average and less knowledgeable person knows that a 20 foot tropical snake has no chance of survival in the cold, bitterly dry windswept plains and deserts that make up most of the State...or in Yellowstone park, for that matter. ^_^ (Well, the average person in Wyoming knows this--it's probably harder for folks who haven't been there to imagine the climate. If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes--it will go from a balmy 70F and sunny, to a thunderstorm, to snowing by nightfall...seen it).

The unfortunate truth here seems to be that the more suitable the climate is for the reptiles we keep as pets, the less likely it is that legislation will remain reptile-friendly. So, I guess I would rather deal with insulation and climate control in my building than have to move my facility again because my business was outlawed.
