Lol i can tell you that my snake is by no means your technical "wild" animal. You can show respect for an animal whether it is your pet, a wild animal, or your cash cow. It doesn't matter what type of creature it is, it still deserves it.
I can't quite follow your wording from before. Are you against keeping snakes? Are you saying that they should be left in the wild to be respected and since they were captured and now captive bred they no longer need that respect? I also don't understand your stance on the "hobby".
I think snake keeping can be a hobby and the animal can still be respected and treated properly as well as being used for monetary gain. How is that different from the snake being a "pet" animal as you say yours are that you are also using for monetary gain?
Sorry if i am missing what you are trying to say but this is how i interpreted it.
