I have been noticing a disturbing trend when it come to reptile news. This is not a new trend but I have seen it develop over the years and wander what can be done to fight back. The problem is, I challenge you to go search for any good news when using the word “Reptile” or even better “Snake” What you will find is ether something bad about the animals or someone who did something stupid enough to get noticed by the law and then the news. The few good things you will find are just texts that have been copy and pasted over the years from someone ells who did all the work to write it years prior. Some might say “As I have in the past” Lets start making our own good news, that unfortunately is easier said than done. First we need to do something good which I am not saying we dont, millions of good things each year are done in our community, the issue is how do we know about it? There is little sharing of information and far to many rivalry’s in our community for this to happen. For example no matter how good it is or how cool it was you will not find one breeder saying anything good about the next. This website has made an effort in the past to highlight good people doing good things in the community but I am only one person and can only consume so much content each day so most everything slips right past me. I have pleaded in the past for members of the community to share anything with me that they see that they liked and or thought was good but that has not happened. The struggle to change the perspective of the public on our members seems to be a never ending one protected by a brick wall. I however have not given up, I have no plans to give up but would like to push the importance of dialog being created to fix this as well as other problems within our community. Where do we start?
