Some pythons removed from bill??
Federal Bill Blocks Boa Constrictors, Anacondas - WDAF
"At the same time, the committee also removed 36 of the 40 python species previously listed on the bill."
Is this true?

Re: Some pythons removed from bill??
Remember... before they amended the bill to just the 9 species in the USGS report, it included all 40 species of pythons. Since there are 4 pythons left on the bill (Burms, Retics, and both afrocks) in addition to the 5 boa species (Boa Constrictor and all 4 anacondas) then yeah... 36 species were "removed"... but 5 were added.

Nope.
We can fight our tails off.
See this thread for the list of things that we HAVE to do.
http://www.redtailboa.net/forums/jus...-campaign.html
In my case, letters to my Senators' branch offices are sent and I have a power-point presentation prepared in preparation for visiting with my Senators or their staff.
Waiting and Hoping is not the way to win.

Can you place your PP presentation on the web, so that others might use it for their representatives?

3. Northern African Rock Python (Python sebae)
4. Southern African Rock Python (Python natalensis)
5. Boa Constrictor (Boa constrictor)
6. The Yellow Anaconda (Eunectes notaeus)
7. DeSchauensee’s Anaconda (Eunectes deschauenseei)
8. The Green Anaconda (Eunectes murinus)
9. Beni Anaconda (Eunectes beniensis)

So to directly answer your question. Ball pythons are not on the currently amended list.

America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom. – John Quincy Adams (1821)

ALL Boa constrictor subspecies. Yes, you do need to work harder.
