Comment on FR Doc # N/A
Braddock, PA, 15104
The overall relationship of humans to animals. in general, worldwide, in all its
many facets, is selfish, stupid, and cruel. This snake subject is one of those
facets.
Wild animals belong in the wild, and not as pets. Snakes are not meant for us
to either capture in the wild nor to raise in captivity for the purpose of
private entertainment. They are not meant to lie interminably in a small
enclosure. Also, it is disgusting to think about the pleasure and excitment men
get at sadistically watching a snake catch and devour a mouse which is forced to
sit in the same enclosure. Yes, this happens in nature. But how, when, and
where it happens is up to God, and NOT to all these men who can't think of
harmless, non-sadistic ways to entertain themselves.
Many of these same people. after becoming bored of their toy, are releasing them
into American bodies of water, reaking havoc on the ecosystems. The only way to
stop this stupidity is to ban the importation and sale of all snakes.
Let wild animals live as they are meant to live.
