that is terrible.
I never thought I was a libertarian but in taking a libertarian/conservative test, I came out pretty strongly in that corner.
I detest this type of rule. I would bet more dogs bit people than snakes. (I am a dog person as you know)..
On our towpath people have all sorts of pets they take when they hike, job, bike ride. I have NOT seen snakes, but have seen dogs, cats, monkeys, birds, ferrets..
too doggone many govt rules!
I guess a snake would freak a lot of people I know dad cannot bear to even watch them on TV.
I have never held or touched a snake but I would love to.
