    Pet's you wish weren't sold at pet stores

    When I was there, all the animals were cared for. It was the inner political bull poop. People from there stopped talking to me after I got a job at a zoo. I miss a bunch of the cats which have probably all passed by now (old age).

    Your rant and my rant would most likely be similar. :D

    Pet's you wish weren't sold at pet stores

    The stupid adoption fee usually covers medical and husbandry costs to the person taking care of the animal to be adopted.

    Pet's you wish weren't sold at pet stores

    Thank You. No one EVER seems to think of their neighbors in a situation like this. I have seen several people here and on other sites who keep venomous snakes in an APARTMENT building. I'm sure these people are more than capable of caring for the snake, but what happens if it escapes? Do you...

    Important!!!

    I gotta say I agree. And truthfully, and i know I will catch crap for this, there is NO reason at all for ANYONE to own one.

    Velvet ants

    How long do they live? Always wanted them for the bug exhibit at my zoo, but we try and stray from short lived species.

    Hawk id needed

    Looks like a red shouldered hawk. Not 100% though because they strongly resemble red tailed hawks.

    dermestid beetles?

    Speaking of crickets, I have seen Dermestid larvae in cricket boxes before. YOu can always ask to comb the cricket bin at your local pet store.

    What do you want them for?

    Bees

    The females do have stingers, but are hesitant to sting. And why would you risk feeding your pet a wild feeder that could have been exposed to god knows what in the wild. Stick to crickets or roaches...

    Chipmunks as pets?

    Just out of curiosity, why does everyone see a cute animal and say, "I want that as a pet"? I am not passing judgement, just curious.

    What is owning a theraphosa like?

    Moderator Note Hello Salsalover, To answer your question, its like owning any other pet. They have basic needs that must be met to assure survival. I can also assure you, any intelligence or "signs of affection" are just assumptions, as they are pure instinct with little little to no...

    Rattlesnake roundup

    BIG difference between a domesticated species that was "created" to be food and a wild species that has very little capacity to bounce back from being killed off by anything other than occasional natural predation and old age.

    Rattlesnake roundup

    Whales are "put to good use" when harpooned. Doesn't mean we should.

    Dont change your Theraphosa labels...Yet.

    Didn't realize you were either. I'll intervene as the little "God" of this forum. This will not become a religious discussion! Keep it on spiders or take it to the watering hole.

    About feeding

    Exactly. But why would you want to? For some odd reason the American roaches just skeeve me out. :barf:

    Freezing a Tarantula to end it's pain - is that a good idea?

    Unless you feel like taking the risk of accidentally killing yourself and anyone else in the house or surroundings, I wouldn't try this one!
