While being closer to my new online frog friends has its appeal, I'm a native Oregonian and I love my tree-hugging-granola-eating-hybrid-driving-environment-loving-bicycle-riding-Libtard state. I've lived other places and came back to stay.

I'm not happy about the illegality of owning a Fire Bellied Toad, but I appreciate what our state has tried to do to regulate both irresponsible pet ownership and importation as well as the invasion of non-native species. Opossums, Nutria, American Bull Frogs - are all non-native and have done a great deal of damage to otherwise native populations, rendering some of them endangered. It's a shame that people don't think about these things.
