    thats all all new to me,cause I see ppl walking around with them as well
    That's because New York City limit laws http://www.nyc.gov/html/doh/download...healthcode.pdf and New York State laws are different.

    NYC Health Code
    (a) No person shall sell or give to another person, possess, harbor or keep wild animals
    identified in subsection (b)

    any member, or hybrid offspring of the family Boidae,
    including, but not limited to, the common or green anaconda and yellow anaconda; any
    member of the family Pythonidae
    , including but not limited to the African rock python,
    Indian or Burmese python, Amethystine or scrub python; any member of the family
    Varanidae, including the white throated monitor, Bosc's or African savannah monitor,
    Komodo monitor or dragon, Nile monitor, crocodile monitor, water monitor, Bornean
    earless monitor; any member of the family Iguanidae, including the green or common
    iguana; any member of the family Teiidae, including, but not limited to the golden,
    common, or black and white tegu; all members of the family Chelydridae, including
    snapping turtle and alligator snapping turtle; and all members of the order Crocodylia,
    including, but not limited to alligator, caiman and crocodile.
    Obviously people need to be knowledgeable about their state laws, county/city ordinances.

    I will also add this, while it is legal to purchase constrictors in NY STATE it is still unlawful to possess them if you live in NY CITY LIMIT and that is what is important.
