Is the amount of people applying for and being accepted for DWA actually on the increase?
I had the impression that we venomous keepers were actually a minority, however I wouldn't like to guess just how many people are keeping illegally. Now thats the scary thought if you want my opinion.

i think the general interest is going up, and your right, the number of illegal keepers is a scary thought, personally, I have come across quite a few, what I would like to see is a Venomous Keepers ascociation, run by someone like tigersnake, so we can all join and work together on making sure mentoring and teaching happens

alot of people say they would love to keep hots doesn't mean they are ever gonna, as for asking questions about hots, yes stuff can be found out on the internet but this is a learning forum many people would like to hear the opinions of those that have experience in keeping them, also not all local councils will give u info on getting a dwa license

I do have questions about DWA but it is curosity as said people do think it is a good idea to keep them but most never do (like me lol) and if i ever was to keep dwas it would be many many years from now and after years of research,some of which would come from this forum. It was only the other day i had a question about DWAs and i had people asking if i was gonna keep them just because i asked a question.
If people get jumped on cos they asked a question about a DWA there not gonna bother askin and just go ahead with it regardless

Hi all, Not being funny but what gives you the right to keep hots and noone else. With the right training and time I have as much right to keep hots as yourself. Or are you trying to push to be an eletist group of keepers??. slither61

[quote=Eric;1711436]I don't feel our hobby should be held on a pedestal it is no more dangerous than racing motorcycles and cars with the proper gear and training the risk is diminished greatly. For the people racing on the streets illegally it is far to often fatal. Kinda like the legal and underground venomous keepers although you don't hear of many casulties from illegal venomous keepers come to think of it. You can compare the dangers of keeping venomous to that of many hobbies while it deserves respect it's not really in all reality any more dangerous then some other hobbies out there.
I imagine there are thousands of venomous keepers legal and underground between the UK and united states it is rare to hear a report of a private collector getting bit. So all and all the survey says people tend to blow thing out of proportion. HI all, It's a shame more people don't have your attitude and common sence, keep safe. slither61
