I sure hope the U.S. doesn't follow Norway's example.
-It's funny. Norway is a "welfare state" meaning that they give there people almost everything. Right down to money for there honey moon. Infact it was a place I was considering at one point.... However I came across the beutifule ban on reptiles and exotics they have. Not to mention the fact that becoming a citizen is near impossible. I guess the reason they give you so much crap, is to provide you a reason to actually stay there....lol From what I have heard, the ban on reptiles up there has only caused much much more problems then good. People are illegally keeping them and more are being released to die, more are being abused becouse they cant show them to anyone, and more of these owners are becoming very irresponsible. Something like that would be horrible for the animals, expecially in a place so "reptile & exotic" filled. Just imagine what it would do to so many people in FL alone. Now put in to reason the thousands of burms people would release so they don't get a fine......
