USARK: Lacey Act bill update! S626 & more...

[Hugsplox]

Now I am not saying that doesn't happen because it does and it is wrong, but a large part of the invasive population was due to Hurricane Andrew destroying some reptile import facilities. just FYI, the more you know, and all that

Keep up the good fight to argue against these bills and support Usark.

I was aware of this, but Burmese pythons have been an invasive species in Florida before Andrew came through. I'm not saying that the only reason we have invasive species is because of irresponsible pet ownership, but it's definitely an issue that we can address on our own. No hurricane released tegus all over Georgia, similar to red lion fish in Florida, someone just turned them loose.

Just to be clear, I'm not saying that government overreach isn't an issue that we all need to be pushing back on. I'm just saying that there are other issues that need to be addressed as well. If we're trying to find a solution to a problem we need to address everything contributing to that problem.
