    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

The Alabama Game & Fish Department (ADCNR) has published its annual regulations for the 2023-2024 hunting and fishing season. A page titled "Invasive Species" asks the public to report sightings of "prohibited non-native invasive species such as the tegu ...". Furthermore it states, "It takes all citizens in Alabama to help us manage and protect our native ecosystems from these non-native invasive species." Other reptiles are also mentioned. Of course the ADCNR has no plans for management of non-native eco-injurious invasive species such as house cats, armadillos, coyotes, hogs, and others. Their focus is on many reptile species including a number not mentioned in this particular page.
