Python Ban... Bad news

No, it hasn't gone through yet, but the USGS has released a map of their potential "Range" in the US. Please read this interesting bit of complete fiction:
USGS Release: USGS Maps Show Potential Non-Native Python Habitat Along Three U.S. Coasts (2/20/2008 10:45:00 AM)



Research underway now on with whom to challenge the validity of this study.

Re: Python Ban... Bad news

All the money we spend on heating cages and now they've discovered burms can survive single digit temps and slither around in the snow. Who would've thought. These people are crazy.
