Do not "help" something that is not true. This will only give those who actually believe the lies another reason to believe them. Instead, please help us spread awareness. Educate the public about these animals in every aspect.
Political agenda, supporters and $$$. Those are the only things that motivate the senator of Florida. Like others have said. It has been proven time and time again that these snakes were not released. Were there really hundreds of thousands of burm owners in Fla at any given time? Do you think there have ever been that many people in Fla who had a burm as a pet? Even if there wasn't proof otherwise, I would never believe that people drove all the way to the southern tip of Fla to release an animal they did not want. Think about it. It didn't happen that way. If by chance you had a snake you didn't want and you didn't live in Fla, would you go that far to let it go in the wild? No. The best thing you can do for our cause is to join USARK and PIJAC. Pay attention to the emails you get from them. Pay attention to the updates posted by Johnathan Brady here on bpnet in the laws ans legislation forum. Follow the directions they give when its time for us to make public comment again. Call fax or email. Or whatever else they instruct. And ask all your friends and family to do it as well.
This is where we need help the most. This is what will benefit the snakes and the keepers the most.
Fla is already *:cens0r:* by passing this new law. The rest of the states do not need to follow suit.
