"Tell a lie once and all your truths become questionable"

As Mr Walker has pointed out several times in this thread, the OP was highly questionable in his motives and agenda....an obvious anti-pet trade agenda that dodged many questions posed to him. So yeah, I doubt he'll be back to Fauna as well.

David, I can see why you might feel that way based on skimming over the thread alone, but if you followed the SFD group and him on facebook you would see Joe is a reptile keeper and he has no hidden agenda. He did the right thing by having the actual tests done. Most of the other people who speculated never even attempted to have the tests done without which any conversation is useless speculation. I completely understand why people are on edge given USFW has been used as the long arm of animal rights activism for a long time and acted without any informed leadership or competence for years, but we must balance that fear with the realization that wild, native snakes are often infected and we must understand the significant risk they pose to our collections.
