Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!! You have no idea what a can of worms this is going to open. I have seen thread after thread locked over this very topic. For the record I am very against the whole practice, especially the way it is often carried out here. I suggest petioning your government to illegalize this procedure before it becomes a common practice by mainly profit minded individuals. If you don't want a venomous snake don't get one.

If I want a lion, I'm going to go and learn about them. How to work with them and stay safe. I'll work with experts and learn everything I can to work an lion safely. I'm not going to buy some toothless and declawed shell of a lion just so I can be lazy and not learn how to do things right. Same with hots. I don't hate venomoid snakes, I feel nothing but pitty for them. Sorry to rant but like I said there's alot of very passionate feelings about this subject. DON'T allow them in Australia!
