Local News: Man bitten by pet viper

I think people should be able to keep what ever they want to if they do it responsibly. I don't care if you have a dozen killer whales in your backyard as long as you have the proper housing and care for them.

permits are not neccisary. self policing has worked quite well. this isnt a common occurance. Experineced hot keepers get bit by thier own reptiles as well. we have a experience hot keeper on here that got bit by his own black mamba.

If ur gonna make a permit process for hots might as well make one for dogs which cause far more injurys.

I understand the want/desire for permits but look at our gov. We do NOT need to give them more power. They WILL just continue to inact laws against it. We already as hobbiest(reptiles, mammals and fish) have to constantly watch and fight against special interest groups(IE PETA, Big cat rescue, HS) to protect our right to keep our animals. They constantly push for BS legislature(IE HR669, florida python ban, the current bill banning 9 species of pythons from US import) and we have to watch and fight it. Why encourage more headaches and pain by adding permits into the mix? We will constantly have to fight to keep regulations on the permits resonable. Its just not something we should support going to IMHO

Dude, dogs cause more injuries than hot snakes because more people have dogs that Hots. If every privately owned dog was replaced witha Hot snake, and vice versa, do you thinkdogs would STILL cause more injuries???

Wow... thanks for staying on topic and keeping this whole discussion in perspective.

What's this omnipresent, completely obvious and out-in-the-open point that I'm oblivious too? Maybe I'm too much of a "genious" to notice them... Red squiggly lines under words FTW

On topic, I find the picture of him with the gaboon around his neck hilarious but sad at the same time.
