Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

We all need to give USFWS our comments, and NOW! Forget about voting against the bill, that is meaningless at this point. If you belong to other groups post the dire need to take action now. Otherwise in about 50 days it will be too late, then we lay our fate in the hands of the USFWS, which I personally do not want to do. If nothing changes they will base their decision on that terrible study by the USGS that predicts the spread on large constrictors across half the United States.

Does anyone have a link to where I can read this report by the USGS? I haven't heard anything about this before now and would like to see what BS they are trying to feed the nation.

makes you wounder
and today at work and i was talking to the local human soiciety pres. and she was telling me that she finds the ban crazy and that she doesn't think its going to go completely thru.
i am sorry my spelling/ grammer is that of a 5th grader but i am just really aggrivated with the bill to me it goes along the lines of the patriot act .

Me too! Are we only able to vote on this issue if we reside in USA? I feel this is an international issue that could effect snake keepers world wide, no matter where we reside. As a hobbyist from across the pond I wish to say I am against this ban. Thanks all Jim Eaton.
