In America, too many (in my personal experience) litters come about through owner irresponsibility. This in an environment where supply far exceeds demand as is, and thousands are euthanized daily. I have no beef with people who ACTUALLY BREED PIT BULLS; when I finally am able to house a Pit, I'd like to be able to obtain one from a reputable source. I think these breeders should consider changing the focus of their business, but if they are being responsible, I have no issue with it. My problem is with Joe Schmuck who can't be bothered to neuter his Pit and/or contain him properly and now there are half-pit (or more!) puppies popping up all over the neighborhood.
To frame in a herpetological stance: there are probably far more ball pythons in existence than are justified by the demand. However, breeders of balls are not irresponsible, nor doing a disservice, by maintaining proper care, educating their customers, and developing new morphs (or even refining old ones). In contrast, it would be extremely irresponsible indeed for someone to house two balls of breeding age together, and then wind up with a clutch they neither desired nor expected. This, I have an issue with.
Finally, if you are responding to my mock shock at the very top of the post, that's a joke playing off of a minor typo in a post above; the joke is explained in the next paragraph.
