i agree with guido and drache, everything is worthy of compassion; even the mice we feed our snakes. Ive seen posts from a lot of good people on this site and Ive seen some post that I really dont care for. Too many people keep snakes simply because they are "cool" or merely for the vast variety of colors that can be obtained through selective breeding. I agree that all there colors are beautiful but i dont see one that is worth more than another, be it a pet youve had for years or a snake that you just found injured in your driveway.

Knowing there are people like guido out there makes me happy, because millions of people fear and hate snakes, thousands seek to kill them, many find them interesting, a few like them but there are very few that truly care for them and there are ever fewer that will do what he does to help them.

Also some people say that they went to a pet store or an expo and seen a few snakes that were in "rough shape" so they wouldnt buy them....these are the snakes i look for, they may die but ill do my best to make what time they have left better than the times theyve seen so far.
