You cant just make a blanket statement saying its unethical, its just your opinion and even if more than 50% think the same its still just an opinion.

So im guessing you dont work with pets or farm animals, because they are animals being used as a commodity by ppl
Would you desex an animal so it can be more easily kept as a pet or grow better for more food? This will change the hormones and prevent breeding etc.
would you cut a birds flight feathers? this will stop a bird doing what it does, fly
Voiding a snake has no known side effects(when done properly) and the snake has no use for its venom other than biting its keeper or another person.
They are far superior for snake shows and by being far more appealing to the public they will work much better to allow ppl to see snakes arnt just venom with fangs trying to kill you(the message given by every snake show i have seen)
As for voids being used as trainer animals, i think thats a bad idea better off with some crazy slaty greys or something.
