How about petitioning an end to this ban? Or..... - Paw Talk

It's been a little less than two years since that monkey pox scare. It's time to end this ban. We can buy an assult weapon, but not a prairie dog. When's the last time someone was killed by a prairie dog? We must let CDC know that enough is enough. Their excuses for the ban is lame. Perhaps we need to hire a lawyer to fight this in court? I'd like to hear ideas from anyone who feels the same way I do.

Well, no one in the US has ever died from mp and there have been no reported cases since summer 03. It's now safe to say that all pd infected have now died. The ban of prairie dogs is more and FDA issue and the CDC controls imports. Believe me Shannon (it's a man) at the FDA in charge of this issue is well aware of me and many, many angry owners. Petitions have been signed and letters faxed. Gena has lawyers and if there was anyway a change could be made Gena would do it.
