Even though the paper I am writing is a non-biased documentation, I want to make it clear to everyone that I am completely AGAINST rattlesnake roundups. I am a Zoology undergrad, not an animal rights activist or bunny hugging hippie. I am compiling this information, because I want to get the straight facts about these roundups to the press, the legislature and the general public. I would like to get as many herpetologists, DVM's and herpetoculturists together as possible to make a UNITED effort to petition against the environmentally dangerous practices of these non-sustainable snake harvests. I realise that many have tried and failed, but I am determined to take this all the way. Some Rattlesnake roundups have been turned into more environmentally friendly festivals in the past and there is no reason why ALL roundups couldn't be required to follow suit. If any of you would like to help feel free to e-mail me directly at Crotalus75@yahoo.com
