Re: Great Animal Escapes- get on TV!!

Wayna were you messing with the post? I am very confused. The post I was quoting had to do with finger pointing and bashing. Was that directed at me?

Re: Great Animal Escapes- get on TV!!

It was for me, I made a sly remark with no intent.

Re: Great Animal Escapes- get on TV!!

No, that was for our OP, we should welcome the media, even if they scare us.

Think about it, if there is EVER to be a program that will depict reptile keepers in a good light, we have to embrace the media, not shun them.

I spent almost two hours on the phone with the last TV producer who posted here, it was a brilliant conversation.

One day I would love nothing more than a program that depicts how seriously we take our "hobby" and I even hesitate to call it a hobby.

A hobby is something you can lose interest in, like collecting records, You can shelf them and forget, Can't do that with living animals now can we?

Actually it is quite different. Have you ever seen what a coy dog ( not a coyote because there is a difference ) can do to a horse? I have. My friends horse was attacked by a coy dog. It wasn't pretty. The horse survived but its rear leg was pretty mangled. The dog didn't survive. What if his 9 year old daughter would've been out with the horse? As far as people keeping snakes goes..... there are people who have them that do not care about their animals or others that share there "hobby". BUT there are people that really shouldn't own dogs, cats or a vehicle for that matter. So should we take these away from those who are responsible because some idiots are irresponsible? How do you feel on banning pitbulls. Is ok to kill all pitbulls because of irresponsible owners? I don't agree with that at all but if I see a pitbull or a shih tzu running loose and chasing deer I will put it down.

Re: Great Animal Escapes- get on TV!!

There is nothing more that I can say, Jay and Korbin have summed up my position quite nicely.

Re: Great Animal Escapes- get on TV!!

I could probably write a paper on the topic, but I'm almost off work and need to go home and watch some doctor who before netflix pulls it from the streaming queue.

If those deer were on a farm and a dog chased them like that then the farmer would be wel within his rights to shoot the dog - or any animal that is terrorising their livestock. In my opinion the fact that the deer were wild and not farmed doesnt take away from the fact that the dog should be destroyed at the owners expense and the owner should be prosecuted.

Re: Great Animal Escapes- get on TV!!

On my property, I reserve the right to terminate any animal, domestic or otherwise that threatens my family, my pets or my wildlife.

If a herd of deer chose to eat from my pasture, and trust me they do, I have no reservations about pulling the trigger on any dog, cat or otherwise that gets in their way.

I pride myself on my amphibian and snake sanctuaries, mess with them and see just how mean Wayne can be.
