Man forced to find home or euthanize 10 year old snakehead

signed as well.
 
actually chris didn't know they were illegal until some time after the ban. I didn't know they were illegal either and I used to play close to a pond that got infected with snakeheads who did survive as a kid, I just thought that they dredged the pond and that was that, I didn't think they'd go so far as to ban a whole species because of one type. to me thats like banning labadors because pitbulls sometimes have bad owners.
true. the fish is 10 years old, Snakeheads were banned in...i believe 2005.
 
I signed the petition as well. I agree I would be POed if I legally purchased an animal and then later on it becomes illegal and I am told I have to get rid of my fish because some crazy law?? I could see if this man had plans to turn it lose or something but he has had it for 10 years! I am not saying all laws are crazy, some do have a purpose. And I can see the intentions behind the law (irresponsible pet owners) but this guy should be cut some slack and let this slide, grandfather it in, something. Why are politicans playing gods here? :swear: :swear: :swear:
 
Eating your own fish ohhhhhhh noooooooo....think NOT!!!! lol. I signed the petition too hope it helps Rocky.
