    Good. If an endangered species needs to be captive bred leave it to zoos or conservation programs that know how to do it and to reintroduce them back to the wild. Not some for profit hobby breeder that had no business collecting wild snakes. Greed for exotic reptiles is one reason we have so many endangered animals already.

    Edit: Wild caught specimens also often harbor pathogens that most inexperienced keepers have no idea how to treat. They also tend to not acclimate very well and are often kept in conditions that are not suitable for their survival as these hobby breeders simply are out to make a profit and could care less about husbandry beyond minimal needs to keep them alive.
