It seems that these days in particular there is an epidemic of stupidity in human culture. The ability to act on personal responsibility, process and use relevant information or to see the larger picture beyond "me" seems lost these days..

Polypterus;2039077; said:Most Gar species are endemic to North America... Cuban and tropical are the only ones that are not. (Isle of Cuba and Central America respectively)
These fish are found nowhere else in the world..
yd u have to say that?Polypterus;2033385; said:He has a pond who cares.. Point here not being well stated is
1. a gator that big taken from the wild is ridiculous to keep and expect it to adapt well.
2. he has full intention to just release it anyhow when he gets bored and has zero clue about just how wrong this is.
Not sure anything will actually help any of this though..
stupid is a part of our culture so ingrained these days that little to no actual reason or intellect can counter it.
Being Stupid is the status quo....
Real pity man as I was holding out for you to be one of the good ones that could be a good Gar keeper.
You had it there for a bit and now have now dismally failed every test. (and then some)
