+1. The mentor thing is what you see consistently in the venomous sector, as well as getting into working with other wild animals that can do serious damage... It baffles me why it's not stressed more with the monster snakes. Sure you may learn as you go and be fine, however, make that one mistake.....
(I've never owned an animal over 9ft. I will own a retic at some point, somewhere where it is legal - I'm in the 3m GTA, and before I get involved I'll be settled and have gained experience with a lrg. adult. If those criteria are not met I do not feel that it would be a responsible 30+ year commitment. My opinion is the same with regards to venomous animals. I figured I should share where I'm coming from rather than spouting off opinions from thin air.)
Spiderman's uncle said it best lol "With great power comes great responsibility."
Yeah Oshawa is the last small city that has the blanket ban in the area, or so I've heard.
