Try the law forum and see what type of responses you get, if any. You're basically doing a paper against exotics, you're not going to find much help.
:It's going to be about animal cruelty, animal dumping, among other things. My topic is about all animals, however, my focus is on exotic pets as when they get dumped they get the short end of the stick. My intent is to educate people about dumping animals and the affect they have on the environment. For example, a python killing local wildlife, stray dogs killing wildlife, etc. Obviously the only way this affects human health is if the animal bite or attacks you, but this can have an affect on the environment in other ways. Does anyone have any links they know of? I'm from Massachusetts by the way.
