Keeping a single animal as a "pet" is actually doing the species and it's intention on this earth a disservice.

After more thought, I'm curious about this statement. Why is keeping a single animal as a pet doing this species a disservice?

You don't get the difference between a snakes life in Africa compared to one in a 4 sided, glass tank, with people continually putting their hands in there to clean and just stare at the snake. Touching it.

Do you really believe I don't get the difference between a snake living in the wild and one kept in captivity? I'm sorry to hear that; I'd hoped you had gotten to know me a bit better than that.
How often do you think I put my hands in there and touch my snake? "Continually" suggests that's all I do, day in and day out, 24/7.
How often do you clean your snake's plastic tub? How often do you replace/add water? How often do you handle your snake? I'm willing to bet that I clean, add water, and handle my snake no more often than you do, though of course I could be wrong.
