305 Boots HawksThis is not only an outrage, it is another example of government trying to take control of everything Americans do. Where and when will it stop? You will not take my animals, you are going to make honest citizens criminals. Get a life and get out of mine.

313 Nick McCordI personally love snakes to death my girlfriend got me in to them and i own six now and i'm hoping to get more they are not that dangerous at all. if anything they are great ceatures of this world and i dont think it is right to just banned them cause you want them gone
314 Kassandra BreauxSnakes are gods creatures how would you like if i said lets banned you from this world? they dont desserve to be treated they way ya'll are trying to treat them you should not try to get rid of them cxause you think they are dangerous. many people like me love snakes as much as i do and we invest our money and time and love into these snakes as people do their dogs and cats and any other animal why should you banned an pet they a lot of people love theses days it would be like taking their dog away from them and it is not right so let the snakes be they are not bad animals to own. SO LET THEM BE FOR GOD'S SAKE
315 John AvillaThis ban is the wrong tact to take. It harms responsible keepers more than anything else. If you want to cut down on the major problems associated with large snakes the area to look at is the banning of exotics in pet stores to cut down on the impulse buys that lead to the abuse or release of these animals.
316 AnonymousPutting these restrictions on all species of boas and pythons would be a devastating blow to the pet industry. We're talking millions in small business income.

318 Mathew PilkingtonIf your going to put a ban on Boas and Pythons, may as well put a ban on goldfish, cats and dogs.
319 geneI’m worried about what the US Fish & Wildlife is proposing. A ban on our hobby is something we all need to worry about!!! We as herpers need to write them and let them know that this is what we enjoy and a ban on it will not stop or change anything that has or will happen. all they will create is a black market for an illegal pet trade. I know there are people out there that have let there snakes and other reptiles go and it has hurt the way native species are living but what is the difference between having a snake run wild and a dog run wild they both can and do harm the way native species live in that area. but are they trying to make it illegal to move dogs over state lines no. so why snakes?
320 AndrewThis is ridiculous!
321 Stephanie YoungDogs and cats are far more dangerous than these reptiles ever could be.
322 Jessica
323 Benito Vellosoof all things unconstitutional
324 Vince Macke
325 Timothy StephensonThis is absurd. I thought that we lived in a free country. If I choose to own boas or pythons(as I do) as pets then that should be my right. The U.S. government is trying to regulate our entire lives
326 ryan wenderleinthis is an attack on our civil liberties and what is next telling us we can buy and sell houses??? will the government handle that for us too? sounds like the complete opposite of what this country was built on..

329 Tommy NealonAs a pet store owner I think This ban will be finacially devestating.and further reaching than any Python Or Boa could ever be on an economic level.

337 robert forgettanot cool..... so not cool.
338 Bill TurnerBan ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS...NOT reptiles!
339 Valeria A. WrightFor almost 17 years i have raised Pythons and Boas in my home. These creatures are only threats to those who do not know how to handle them. I have taught in numerous schools about my snakes and lizards. I realize that there have been issues with those who have bought these incredibly docile pets but to inflict this ban would be a great injustice to those have lived with these gental animals.

345 Christopher NashThis an utter outrage! These snakes are only dangerous to people who are uneducated and have not done their research. Why not put a ban on dogs they can be dangerous if you mistreat them.
346 Ethan AtkissI am strongly opposed to a ban on trade and/or keeping of retiles and other exotic pets. I feel that captive breeding of animals that may be endangered in the wild is helpful as it reduces demand for wild caught animals in the pet trade. Illegal import and export of endangered or dangerous species should certainly be controlled. The ban, however is wrong.
347 Cameron GarciaI just want to help fight against the ban! I love my reptiles and I love the bussiness of reptiles!
348 Jonathan Andrew Truthan
349 JessI'am agaisnt this senseless attack on herp hobbiests, buisness owenrs, and other intrests that are related to these beautiful creatures.
350 David BranchI strongly oppose to this law
