Yes, there is evidence of greed. But it is from greed on the part of Ty Park by originally denying that the purple albino tegus were going to be the prizes for the winners of the raffles. Initially he claimed they would not be, and he was going to try to buy the cheaper blues from another breeder. How is that not greed in all sense of the word? He wanted to keep the more expensive purples for himself, didn't he? We only have what Michelle Cutler has posted about her part of the conversation over that greedy move by Ty Park. Who knows what other flak he might have gotten from other persons over that decision that later forced his hand? Maybe that is what ticked him off. The fact that he was being forced to give up animals he greedily wanted for himself, and when he saw a flimsy excuse to deny one of the winners her prize, saying she just did not provide her shipping address, he was all over that as a reason to hang onto one more of the purple albinos that he coveted so much.
And later perhaps someone pointed out to him how this looks, and he decides to do some damage control by raffling off another tegu to someone else, claiming that was Michelle Cutler's tegu.
My opinion of this is that all I see in this is greed, and a pretty deeply hidden damaged personality trait in Ty Park. How many does he say he still has available? Any one of which would have settled this issue with Michelle Cutler, and yet he still refuses to do what it right, fair, and proper? What kind of person does something malicious like this?
