Domesticated or not. Fact is, they're still not in the wild. Being in tanks, even all decorated to resemble the wild, is still not in the wild. And keeping in rack tubs, like I do, is definitely not in the wild either. Ok so, you're right, they are wild animals. I get that. Point is though, they have been captive so long that you can no longer compare them to being in the wild. And I'm not talking about a 15ft pet Burmese python being let go into the Florida Everglades. That's a whole different thing. That's just an owner that bought it cuz it was cute when it was little, but didn't do any research to know how big they get. I know you didn't say anything about that. I just said it cuz I know someone will.
