Poll: What do reptiles and amphibians mean to you?
 

Which statement best describes the role that reptiles and amphibians play in your life?
Feel free to elaborate on the impact that herps, herping, and/or herpetology have had on you.

Choose as many as apply.

I chose "I'm pretty much obsessed with them." However, several of the others would fit, as herps are my hobby, business and lifestyle. I've also worked with herps in every significant job I've ever had. Whenever I'm not doing something else, I can usually be found reading and researching about herps, obsessively looking at pictures of them, planning my next acquisition even if it is a year away, and engaging with other herpers online. In addition to caring for, breeding and selling my own animals, I'm also an active member of my local herp society, and enjoy doing educational shows to introduce the wonder of herps to the populace. I enjoy sharing my passion with others, and many of my closest friends and family, who never thought about reptiles on their own, now have a snake or two. My best friend has gone from the owner of a single box turtle (acquired from me) to my full fledged business partner, co-owner of several of my snakes, and sole owner of almost as many snakes as I have. She is expecting the first litter from her sole-owned snakes this year, and we will have another two jointly owned litters.

I picked they are interesting pets, but, that is about it and herps are my hobby. Since, well, reptiles and amphibians are my favorite pet. Plus, they are my hobby. So, I picked both. Thanks for making this pole Herpin Man.
