As Ben Franklin said: "We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all
hang separately!"
RPOA has found that our members often own multiple species of pets -- dogs,
cats, birds, ferrets, horses and reptiles. Animal lovers often can't keep
just one species - sorta like potato chips! Please support our
herpetologist membership and vote "NO" below as they request:
From: United States Association of Reptile Keepers <news@usark.org>
Subject: Should the US Government Ban Pythons? PLEASE VOTE!
Should the US Government Ban Pythons? PLEASE VOTE!
US Fish & Wildlife Service is considering a BAN on many pythons and boas
that would add them to the Injurious Wildlife list of the Lacey Act. A move
that would criminalize the actions of millions of American citizens and
destroy tens of thousands of small businesses. Please participate in this
easy poll to weigh in on this issue. If you don't believe pythons should be
banned VOTE NO!
