I'm not a hunter at all, heck I'm a vegetarian, I don't like killing animals at all. The reason the deer pop. has risen is because the predators were massacred. But that was long ago, when people were not very smart. So I don't hold anything against modern hunters (unless they hunt species that are not overpopulated, then I get mad).

Wow we are getting off topic. Anyways. My grandpa and i had a shooting contest a month or so ago. We used his semi automatic .22 rifle(mine hopefully in the future) and we set a plastic softball out about 100 yards. We each got 5 shots and he said he would pay me ten bucks everytime i hit. Well i hadn't shot in awhile well my last shot i nailed it he didn't i could do it it was so funny. Then we took a gatorade can out in the middle of his field about 250 yards and went to see who could shoot(no money this time LOL) and i got it.

I have always been owned by cats my entire life, with the exception of the past 2 years after Harley died. The reason we haven't gotten another cat since then, is I'm afraid with all the reptiles in here, the cat might get hurt, or it might hurt one of the reptiles, so until the reptile building is finished, no mammals allowed. I have had a variety of cats, ferrets, gerbils, rats, rabbits, & an african pygmy hedgehog(I really miss him) as pets (some where rescues) since I moved out. And I used to breed mice/gerbils/rats as feeders for the snakes & lizards. When I lived at home we had cats, a dog, Marine Fish Aquarium, tetras, & firebelly newts, & babysat a Parrot for a couple months for my aunt(grrrr-dang thing bit me on the face when I was around 5 years old and I had a scar for several years-I don't like most birds to this day, unless they are wild & stay away from me). I think that's about it, Marine

My entire life revolves around veterinary medicine. I've been a veterinary technician for almost 10 years now and just recently received my bachelors in Zoology and my associates degree in Veterinary Technology which makes me officially certified through the state of Florida...I've always had an intrest in exotic animals in general and it was a doctor I worked for that ended up getting me hooked on the reptile thing. I am now owned by 2 gorgeous tangerine leopard geckos, a ball python, 3 ferrets, a dog and a cat. (And a 1 bedroom apartment)

 Real doctors treat more than one species
