I dont disagree with what you are saying, per say. I'm just trying to look at it from the uninformed public's point of view. There is a reason Wayne kept mentioning large cats and large reptiles. These are the things that scare the general public. I feel everything will get banned if we keep approaching this situation like all animals are the same. Large cats do stalk and kill humans in the wild. Boas do not. This is why I would classify a large feline as being more dangerous than a boa. You group these two things together and the uninformed public begins to see them as equally dangerous. That being said, as long as they are cared for and housed properly, they do not really pose a threat to the general public.
