It's been previously asked and discussed. There are a number of people who don't think that releasing captive-bred animals into the wild is problematic as long as they are in their natural range. Others have problems with it based on their feelings about the likely fates of the actual individual animals, while others have problems with it based on the potential (and always unknown) deleterious effects on wild populations.

Quite frankly, it was worth a lot more to me thinking that I may see it again someday during my walks.

WOW!!! I would have been overcome by excitement! Then talking about it for days, probably driving my hubby nuts, LOL! What a joy it would be to find something like THAT in the WILD!! Heck, I go crazy just finding a turtle in the wild!

Just don't be out there flipping over my cars.....

Heck, I've had coachwhip snakes on the porch, scarlet snakes under the palm trees, and eastern diamondbacks by the shed. Haven't seen any coral snakes lately, but they are definitely around here.

Oh yeah, I guess I shouldn't forget to tell you about the bear tracks.....

Rattlers and Scarlets and Bears! Oh joy!

Don't worry, I'll leave your cars alone. I have a healthy respect for anything that goes "VROOM!" and doesn't sound like a lawn mower on steroids.
