There was also a report today on the radio (I cannot find it in print) of a 9ft burm found in the metro parks 3 miles from my house. Two big local stories in a week. Not good Ohio's.....

Wow that article is ridiculously one sided, but then again it is fox news what else can you expect....

They also basically lie in it also, something media does alot... or "bend the truth" they said burms and other snakes were banned in FL but really you can still own them if you breed, and I think some are allowed with licenses? Something like that..

I live in ohio and this is just wrong. Theyre talking about bear attacks and now they want to ban all exotic animals??? Maybe make it harder to get permits for the animals that DO require them but really. WHY would you take a bear out of its cage? That should be illegal, I dont care how good it is... Just basic things to keep the public safe and stop stuff like this from happening...

I for one dont want to see any reptiles banned since I really want to get some big snakes in my future... If anyone finds info on how to fight this ban or what ever they are trying to do.... Inform me. Im finally 18 and can actually do something.

WE HAVE 14 DEATHS IN 20 YEARS FROM ESCAPED EXOTIC PETS...

Really?!?!?!?!?!?!? Why dont they try fighting something thats actually helping people...

And im going to take a wild guess that NONE of them were snakes. Most likley bears, or tigers, or some kind of primate.
