Pureblood animals are IMPORTANT to sustain bloodlines, and the species as a whole. Someday, a long time from now.... ball pythons might become near extinct. The Zoos of the world are going to be thankful for the breeders that put time and effort into maintaining pure lines. Caulker cays are even "said" to be extinct on the island they come from, or there are very very few left wild. Do you think i want to see people breeding them with hog island boas!? ( oh wait, someone did! and that really got me angry) No. I want a species that developed on an island, and got all sorts of neat traits and characteristics, to remain that way.
Ball Pythons and Carpets are common sure, but each has its own interesting traits that comes with the species. Something that evolved that way for a reason.
