The US-ARK thing: what's your disaster plan?

... Raise an army of noodles to try and take over congress? ...

Hmm? Good idea! Seriously, sticking together is the first thing, & that's where USARK comes into play. It's the same reason that workers join unions...to protect their rights.

With alerts from USARK, we can speak up to our representatives in government & that let's them know that we're paying attention & fighting back. USARK is good but they can't do it alone- we need to pay attention & be vocal when they post alerts- not be "doormats".

I think it's also on all of us to help educate others about snakes (being good pets, & reducing people's fear) whenever we can. It may seem like "a drop in the bucket" but those drops do add up to changing minds, & thereby changing acceptance. And supporting rescue & educational organizations that do this helps as well. There's so much misinformation & fear to overcome- we just have to keep at it.
