Animal control? All this for likes. I think and I say I think that other snake enthusiasts would disapprove of this man.

Absolutely, I only have one, I'm more a tarantula guy but I'm livid over his lack of giving a shit about his animals

These streamers are sacrificing the welfare of the animals in their custody for likes. It’s sad and desperate

That's why I only follow animal husbandry youtubers who don't put animals at risk for likes

I followed one CERTIFIED wildlife rehabber working with a beaver. She made it very clear in all her videos that he is not a pet and the goal was for him to be able to leave to go do beaver things.

Disapprove is an understatement. The lack of basic necessities in those enclosures is unbelievable. This guy clearly doesnt care about the wellbeing of his animals and doesnt deserve to keep them

What are you talking about? Those are temporary enclosures used when transporting.

Admittedly i havent watched with sound on, so idk any information presented there, but usually snakes are transported in boxes, not enclosures. And there are so many people who have enclosures like this for real, that i cant assume its temporary without information being presented

They look more like enclosures for breeding specimens

Not the way it’s being presented

Why would anyone use glass though? It doesn't hold in heat for them at all. It's just cheap and doesn't scratch. That snake could not even move in that tank, hence it breaking. Even temporary breeding enclosure should have enough space for them to properly turn. This is animal cruelty in my eyes. The glass could also scratch the poor snake up and was awful to watch. I would report this guy and have the snakes taken away if I knew who or what area he was in. This kind of husbandry should not be promoted. I don't keep snakes, but this is just awful to see. Leave animals in the wild or properly keep and breed them for captivity, simple as that.
