Hi
I read through these post with much interest and am fascinated by the range of DWA animals that people keep

why do people drive in cars that can potentially kill them, or cross roads?

well the thing is, if you drive a car recklessly then theres a high chance of death or serious injury, if you take the right precautions then those risks are very much minimised, its the same (to an extent) with dwa animals, with the correct safety measures and training then the risks are managable.

Same could be said for large snakes such as Common Boa, Burmese Python, Retics and so on............

This is my excuse...

If you love and have a passion so much about somthing, you would take care of that animal, even though it could kill you.

There is many people who keep DWAs just for the thril and the "too look cool infront of people"

But there is a fair few people who keep it for the passion,


That is all

this is exactly why i asked
i was hoping not to hear someone say it tho
i am well aware that those of you on here are devoted Dwa keepers and i admire you for yourgood work in educating pple

However looking cool whilst suffering from a snake bite seems a bit too cool for me !!!!
