Why I brought my first snake home and have all these reptiles? Because I have a love for the beautiful creatures, and I understand that I am very privilaged to be given the opportunity to care for them and respect their individualities between species. They are an awesome learning tool, and often give me something to do in my spare time.
Also, I do donate to fundations for animals such as the one you mentioned. Me keeping reptiles has nothing to do with being selfish. I know they are not going to be sent back to the wild, and I know they will be in good care for me. In most cases, they will be better off with me then from where they came from.I therefore take this privilage to full advantage. Again, it is a privilage to own these animals, thats why we should never put what is best for us before what is best for them.
