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.

I can't imagine mass euthanization ever being "right". You don't go with what is "logical" when dealing with the lives of animals. Rescues around the country would have banned together to save any of the animals who could be saved, reptile or rodent.

The video PeTA posted on YT is disgusting, Sucks that they have a video circulating of it now but nothing can be done, Just be sure not to link the video in this thread to not give them more attention and views.

http://www.pe.com/local-news/riversi...eeder-case.ece
"More than 18,400 rodents and 600 reptiles have been euthanized after being discovered at a breeding business in Lake Elsinore living in squalid conditions, according to animal advocates."

oops I meant to also include this:
http://ranchosantamargarita.patch.co...ive-euthanasia
"“After careful analysis, a team of veterinarians, reptile specialists, and animal cruelty investigations experts determined that due to the extreme neglect, cruelty and dangerously unhealthy long-term conditions, contaminated environment and the potential for further suffering, euthanasia was the safest and most humane option for the animals and the community at large,” Carlson said."
"Of the animals that were still alive when the investigation began, Bagwell explained most were too sick, too weak to eat."
"“Felony charges will be filed,” Bagwell said."

Wow mitch, I mean ... that's not a glitch, that's some intentional animal cruelty going on there. This goes far beyond simply being a coward, lair and buffoon, this really is criminal. Even I know you're far too smart not to have known what was going on in your own state of the art facility. Shame on you mr. behm, shame on you.
Animal abusers and kid abusers mitch, favourites in the Joint. I'm SO glad I'm not you.

I just don't see how any person,whether business motivated ,or pure hobbyist,could allow,or cause that sickening scenario .You have to be really lacking any empathy or decency to allow even the dead to decompose to those conditions ,let alone the living to whither too .H really did not care ,and losing his freedom,and also the priviledge to ever own another animal the rest of his natural life.
This will cause a ripple effect for all of us

I must say, I vaguely knew of GCB and their pathetic way, the video (from Peta, who I despise), and the many news articles with pics and descriptions of all the animals in his care is just immoral and would not surprise me a bit if he is or will be a human murderer. I usually choose to back off things, I havent really had too much bad stuff to my account on here over the years, but this I am willing to take a ban for or negative points or whatever, but Mitch and the "employees" at GCB are pieces of shit and are just taking up my air and all the other good people in this worlds air, we breath.
Mods, no need to pm me, I am expecting at the least a bad warning and even my first ban, but these assholes and the their treatment of these defensless animals are worth it to me.
AT LEAST KEEP MY POST HERE THOUGH !!!!

The word sociopath comes to mind b/c thats the only type of person I can imagine having no sympathy or empathy for animals under his/her ownership or care....especially with the stories of Mitch's unauthorized perverted animal experiments from his college years.
