america's deadly obsessions

[ashley_morris22]

hi all,
did anyone watch this on fox last night? it was about american buying snakes ( like king cobras etc) off the net and they have not restrictions on them, then when they get ot big or to hard they just let them go. and now its becoming a big problem over there. also this bloke had a 11 foot boa that killed him. i just went throw the tv guide and its not on again this month (not normal for fox normaly on every 3 days)
any way the reason i typed this was did any hear his theroies on the types of snakes for people he had and a limit on sizes of snakes, also how stupid people are?

thanks
ashley

that shows old so it was probably put in to fill time. this is a good show and it reminds you that the animals we keep are not controlable and tame, they are still wild animals

also for those that missed out on austin stevens search for the king cobra, its on at 9:30 this morning

I have no doubt at all that we would have the same problems if we didn't have reguations and were able to buy burmese and retics for $20.
