Guys lets make a few things straight..,
I do agree that all snakes at one time were taken from the wild, but it had to be done in order to start a breeding colony in captivity. What you guys doing is just BARBERIC! You guys take the animals from the wild even thoe you can get which are captive bread! The snakes that are captive bread, did not see the wild there for would not suffer as much in your Rubbermaids et. Yes they came from the wild animals, but it had to be done in order to start a captive colony! What you guys are doing is, taking the animals from the wild even thoe you can get captive bread ones instead!
You guys mentioned that it is good to take them from the wild if there is over population. Well wrong again! the wild animals have a tendency of keeping its balance, and did so for millions of years before humans came!
I am by no means against people keeping and breeding captive bread animals, or with an exception wild caught animal which does not exist in captivity only!

You are certainly entitled to your opinion. I am sure that PETA and the HSUS think that YOU are barbaric for even keeping animals in captivity. Many would find you barbaric for even eating meat (assuming that you are not a vegitarian).
I am curious as to what YOU have done for conservation and education.

So, i went to petsmart(I KNOW PETSMART PEOPLE THERE ARE STUPID AND MOST OF THE TIME DON'T NO WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT!) a few years ago and they said it is illeagal to take the garter snake and alligator lizards? I wonder if it is?
If you guys are taking snakes out of the wild to give them a better life i have nothing against that, i think that is good, or if you are taking them and breeding them and keeping some and putting some back, but i think if u put a captive bread animal back in the wild i don't think it will do that good.
But alex they have already told you it is not illeagal to take them in florida, so you can't really do anything about it. plus your in canada and there in florida.

Animals that have been in captivity should never be released due to the risk of introducing a foreign pathogen into the native population. That is why all of the EDB rescues from the roundup cannot be released. Also due to the unknown locallity of them.
Lowrider, it is GARTER snake  Just one of my pet peaves.
