Re: Venomoid Question

When it comes to Venomoids, no one agrees on the same reason for having one. I naturally am 100% against a vet. or God preforming this procedure and I can tell you why very easily.
I look into the eyes of all my animals prior to taking them out of their tanks. Snakes have expressions and after a while you can read their eyes. I see a proud animal that can stand one on one with any other breathing animal in its path. Sometimes it wins sometimes it looses but it is always a fair fight. I see an animal that should it escape or be set free would be able to fend for itself and go about a normal life. I see an animal that either accepts me as an equal and does not strike at me when I handle it or an animal that wants no part of me and I release it. I see a fire, a sense of pride, a sense of equality in their eyes. I look into the eyes of a venomoid and I see a beaten animal that depends upon the mercy of others for its upkeep. No fire, very little pride and a ghost of its former self. It does not fear death, it awaits its end with regret, thinking of how it use to be. No, I want no part of a venomoid but should one come my way, I would treat it with all the love and respect I could afford it. Before I would take part in such an act, I prey that my end come swiftly because I had gone back on everything I believed in and loved. I want no part of a butchered snake and I would never be seen with one. Joel
