I spend a good 3-4 hous a day trying to educate friends, family, and said officials.
I have small children, but the are now old enouph to learn about proper care of the snakes. There is NO unsupervised handling the snakes stay in thier cages unless mom or dad is there to help!

I can't stand the way people treat the animals badly, when it was the owner/keeper's resonsibility to keep the animal, and people around it safe.


like they say for pittbulls...punnish the deed, not the breed.
Thank you i agree .Is it possible to have a talk with your family and possibly have them visit our family friendly site? This way they can see the truth not the crap the media stretches.
