Angolan pythons nearly bring me to tears. This is coming from a 22 yr old male former wrestler, so let me explain why.
Angolan pythons are beautiful and well tempered (all of this is from my reading, I have no personal experience) yet their habitat and they themselves are continually being destroyed. If you have never seen angolan pythons please go do a google. From what I have read they are very similar to our beloved BPs in terms of size and temperment... some say they are better feeders. Anyways - what can I do to help? I am SO sick of seeing these beautiful pictures and reading about zoo breeding programs. What can I do to help? How can I preserve the habitat or help this species increase it's numbers? One Angolan python sells for about the price of a new foreign sports sedan so it's not in my budget to buy one. I have yet to find a group specifically pointed twards preserving this amazing species and I would like any direction you can give in helping me find one. If it comes down to it I would love to start one. So please give me any info any of you have on preserving this amazing species as it has stolen my heart.
