I have not read of any confirmed cases of wild snakes infecting captive snakes. The only exception I know of is <a> case of wild caught adult Nerodia giving birth to young which are then shown to be positive for the disease. We dont know if the babies were infected from their surroundings or if they were born with it - contracted it from infected females that birthed them.
Also - why did my attempt to update this situation on the Board get blocked?

Question:
Are people attributing the spread of SFD to "wild" specimens entering into otherwise sanitized protected CB collections?
