Cassandra unfortunatley this IS what sells commercial time. Most people want to see the snake wranglers in action. Most nascar fans wanna see a wreck. The rest of us will never get it and often get upset about but we can all turn the channel. If enough of us dont watch it wont be on. More importantly these show are scaring people away from animals that if handled properly in any given situation(in the wild or captivity) pose little threat to us. I also think some of these shows give young people begining to show an interst in our hobby the wrong idea(that it is easy to deal with these animals). I was lucky to have met a breeder who is concerned with the animals welfare,and the keepers not just profit. Not so lucky with the motorcyles but thats a hole other story.
