Boa shot in West Michigan
Nearly 7-foot long snake shot by state trooper - Grand Rapids News - The Grand Rapids Press Online - Michigan Newspaper - MLive.com

Can we avoid a big debate by just agreeing that this could be avoided by responsible pet ownership?

Re: Boa shot in West Michigan
Ugh the comments on that sight annoy me a great deal. But that is okay hopefully people will start becoming more responsible. But this is the human race and well for every responsible pet owner there are 2 that aren't it seems.

Re: Boa shot in West Michigan

It just surprises that there are still people out there that don't even know what a redtail boa is. And that there are still people out there that scared of them.

Re: Boa shot in West Michigan
I love how it was always "released because a keeper did not want it". Nobody ever considers it may have escaped like many feral cats and dogs. I guess every feral animal was set loose from an irresponsible keeper.
