I'm caught in the middle wanting to play both sides of the fence. I don't like the reptile/amphibian shows with frogs and snakes crammed in a container barely bigger than a petri dish and I don't like the neglected animals in cages at pet stores. That industry definitely should be done away with.
Buuuuuuuuuuhhhhhtttt......
I also love them all and would love to be able to care for some of the ones that aren't able to be released into the wild when said industry is dismantled and destroyed, but in some way that gives them as fulfilling a life as one can have when forced into captivity. It's complicated.
