And this is why we ALL need to stand together against the HSUS and similar organizations.

PIJAC and USARK, start donating what you can, they're fighting for us. Espcecially USARK as they're dedicated to strictly reptile ownership.

PIJAC has allot more funds and they don't want them to ban reptiles as it means they will go after other pets too. Allot more people support them such as bird people, fish people rodent people etc. Not down playing USARK at all BTW.

I've got 17 letters printed out and ready to send on Tuesday just for this.

(Despite my location, I am a WV resident.)

The Mountains, of course! :P

I live in NH, we actually have relatively strict snake laws if i believe you cant own an eastern hognose, and you need a permit if you posess more than 2 eastern milksnakes, etc etc.

I just live literally on a mountain, so I jest.

I actually think we have relatively laid back exotic laws.
Eastern hoggies are state endangered.
Where are you located?
