Message | It's not as if exotic animals are endangered, otherwise they would appear on the endangered species list, and be subject to that legislation. No, just because an animal is a bit unusual doesn't mean we need to heavily regulate it over the ordinary run-of-the-mill pets people keep. |

Message | So you support trade in which animals will not be treated humanely. :headbang: |

Message | Exotic animals are still treated like any other animals. "Unregulated" simply means there are no additional regulations for exotic animals over non-exotic ones. |
