thesavageprojects Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I just got an email from usark and one part i though may be of interest. "USARK is committed to protect the rights of every corner of the hobby including keepers of geckos, crocodilians, large snakes, venomous reptiles, frogs, tarantulas and every herp and invertebrate in between." the interesting part being that this is the first time, that i know of, anyone willing to legally fight for our right to keep inverts. the usark guys have been fighting anti-reptile laws and d-bag animal rights groups for a while, they have the money, lawyers and partnerships to actually get things done.

Master_Roach Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Interesting. What sort of things can thy do? Make stick insects and giant land snails legal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesavageprojects Posted February 28, 2013 Author Share Posted February 28, 2013 Thats not likly. There are mostly funded through the reptile industry, so that is there priority. Mostly they fight anti reptile legislation thats groups like peta and ushs try to push through the legal system. These animal right groups believe that it is cruel to have pets of any kind and these groups have a lot of money. So basically we need special interest groups like usark to stand against special interest groups like peta. Red tape and boring government garbage but im glad there are people like usark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RaZias Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Here in Europe we don´t have PETA problems. Stick insects are legal (in Europe if there is a law about this no one cares really...but I don´t know about it in England). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
