    This hits home with us here because it has to do with animals. A subject that is our passion. That said, we all need to care about the same thing happening with things that maybe we don't hold dear to our hearts but others do.

    A lot of people don't care about reptiles or certain pets. My point is, those people should care, and we should care about things that maybe we don't cherish being taken or limited.

    Freedoms being taken away in bits and pieces behind the scenes will eventually hurt us all.
    I couldn't agree more. We all need to be paying attention, and we also need to get involved wherever we can. It's not the time to be complacent, or it will soon be too late.
