If Reptiles got banned..?
Ok this is just a bit of role play and out of curiousity.
Say if reptiles got banned and you were no longer allowed to keep them or breed them. Im pretty sure many people would go underground. Would you happily hand over your pets? Keep them and not tell anyone? Would you keep breeding and sell them private? This is out of interest, keeping reptiles hasn't been banned and no one will get in trouble  Just thought it might be an interesting discussion.

I need more information.
If I turn my reptiles over, what will happen to them? Are they all GUARANTEED to be housed in a zoo or public display or similar, regardless of species? Or is it likely that many if not most of the common species will be euthanised? If my animals were going to be euthanised I'd be arranging to move somewhere where they aren't banned. If my animals were going to be safe then I would have to turn them in - seeing as I'm not a vet and couldn't treat my animals if they became ill. I'm not going to condemn my pets to suffer just because I don't dare let anyone know I have them. But it'd kill me to do it, and I'd probably be looking to move elsewhere anyway.

Some interesting points, I'd like to see some sort of project where you can't buy anymore but those you do have you can keep until they die of old age but you cannot breed. Therefore you keep your pets, they get vets attention and I think that would be fair.
