As reptile owners, breeders and business owners that support and make a living directly, or indirectly from reptiles in general, and these snakes in particular; we would be well served to fight this in unity.

If you think that just because your reptile of choice is not currently on the list, you need not worry, you are wrong. Based on what has happened in other states, the list will grow and be amended year after year until there is nothing left.

Please make your opinion heard in Richmond, thank you.
