LMAO....i just got the picture of someone with a bumblebee spider flying to Africa to set it free! You have to consider where 'wild' is for these animals. I don't see anyone going to Angola to release an Angolan python hybrid

I do not think that the 'released back into the wild' situation seems realistic when discussing any non-native species like pythons and boas. The majority of the pythons and boas kept in the US would quickly 'die off' once exposed to winter conditions....the exception to this is Florida...ha ha..and even in Florida...you could actually look at morphs as a preventative to invasive snakes.....how hard would it be to spot burms in the everglades if they were all albinos??
