Thanks. I presume the 'lovely' was sarcasm as I believe were all against snake bans.

Wonderful. How much you want to bet he's a member of H$U$ or PETA?

Re: Snake Activist wants snake ban in Canada.

Interesting?? I don't see how he can compare anywhere in Canada with what's happened in Florida. Any imported species released into the wild here WILL DIE thier first winter in the wild.

We just don't face those problems!!

Re: canadian ban

I know I saw that. Its insane he's comparing Canada to the Everglades and how snakes can be an invasive species. If I left any one of my animals outside in the wild over night they would die. Its too cold here

In one of his vids he shows BPs, BRBs, and RTBs as invasive to our eco system which is in my opinion bullshit since the place they natively come from is completely different

Re: Snake Activist wants snake ban in Canada.

I just looked back at the video the OP posted and the comments have been disabled probably because of the backlash that would ensue. I am actually ok with getting rid of the importation of animals because I try and only support CB/CBB animals but to say that they can thrive in the wild is beyond ridiculous

Re: Snake Activist wants snake ban in Canada.

Wow a snake PETA....

I wonder if the ones I rescued from certain death are "exploited"...

Oh that's right (Gasp) I take naked pictures of them and post on the internet!! I AM exploiting them...
