Re: Venomous - to keep or not to keep

Agree with Wayne's points and Percey's thing with hots+large constrictors. Also with licensing, but I swore everyone needed licensing for hots.. I'm guessing you don't in some areas? And by Wayne's statement, I guess some people that buy hots online via Paypal or some other services aren't checked for a license showing they're fully capable of being responsible with such an animal?

Here is a page from a popular classified ad service... anyone with money can order.. and this is just the cobra listing! the viper listings had 49 ads.

The listings with gaboons, bushmasters & puff adders has another 34 ads.

Total, that is nearly 100 advertisements for the worlds deadliest snakes that anyone with a bit of cash can order.
