Hey PNHS – Some of my letters are silly, some are fluff, some are political, and some strive to pro-

vide knowledge, or at least to make people think. I hope that after the last few years, I’ve managed to

add something to your life, or to make you get out and get active to make a positive impact for herps

in our community. In this, my second-to-last LFTP, I’d like to write to you from my heart.

I recently picked up a foster ball python. Her name was “Coils” and she was four years old. Her peo-

ple had picked her up as a pipsqueak. Apparently what began as trouble shedding when she was a ju-

venile had, over time, developed into severely fragile skin which would damage so easily that eventu-

ally, her caging was merely a tank with substrate and a water source. Her skin had been easily-broken

for her entire life. They were unwilling to take her to a qualified exotic veterinarian, and so surren-

dered her to PNHS.

After a great deal of questioning regarding husbandry as well as the exchange of photos – Were they

feeding live? What were her temps and humidity? What sort of cage decorations did she have? – a

story came into place, as often does when people get a pet and are not always sure where to find ap-

propriate information regarding care. If her people were to be believed, she had eaten regularly,

weekly, and had normal elimination habits as well as behavior. From the blurry pictures sent to me,

she was apparently very thin. Also, for the first few years her vivarium was extremely dry – after

which time, they over-compensated and went in the opposite direction in an attempt to fix the prob-

lem, including a waterfall and misting system. Poor scaly baby, and poor people struggling through

with bad advice.

.

The first day, I changed her name to Arpi, Finnish for “scar”, in place of her generic name. I made

an appointment with Dr. Elizabeth Kamaka for two weeks hence and put her in a tub with only pa-

per towels and a water bowl. She seemed normal in behavior and attitude, and had only one fresh

lesion. I fed her, and she took the frozen/thawed mouse quite readily. I began to feel a bit of hope.

Although I was concerned about kidney problems, severe malnutrition, and infection, I still hoped

that maybe proper husbandry and perhaps medication would put some weight on her bones and

help her skin heal. Despite chronic and perpetual injury, she seemed good-natured and easy-going

like any other ball python. She did have a bit of stuck shed on her face and neck, but I left it for the

time being as I was afraid of hurting her.

Chronic parasitic infection could have explained her condition. Arpi had no signs of respiratory

infection,, parasites, or any other obvious cause for her skin problems. At this point, she was perky

and beginning to get a bit irritable with the doctor, which are all good signs in terms of her chances

for any sort of recovery. After consultation, we decided that we would try to fatten her up and give

her a chance to begin recovery. Perhaps her people really hadn’t fed her every week? Maybe it was

simply being underfed, combined with the poor husbandry? I’ve certainly nursed enough BPs back

to healthy weight in the past, that I was willing to give it a go. I was beginning to feel cautiously

optimistic, despite her poor appearance. We decided to also add weekly fluids with a Vitamin B

boost.

I met them and picked up Coils in a

cardboard box, in a parking lot – rou-

tine for foster pick-up and delivery. She

was emaciated, showed signs of de-

hyrdration, and covered with scars as

well as bruises, indicated by pink

patches under her scales.

Earlier today I took her to see Dr. Ka-

maka. After Arpi had a thorough exam,

which she tolerated fairly well, the doctor

left with a fecal sample to check for para-

sites. Arpi curled up in a towel over a

heat pad while we waited for results.

V o l . 2 6 , N o . 1 2 Pa g e 6

Although her appetite was good, the boost to immune function certainly couldn’t hurt a girl in her condi-

tion. When Dr. Kamaka inserted the needle to administer the first dose, Arpi’s skin tore. I have never seen

anything like this in over five years of fostering ball pythons, and neither had the doctor or her technicians.

She wasn’t thrashing around, and the injection was properly placed; her skin was simply so weak that a

large piece tore off like thin fabric when she wrapped around the doctor’s hand. Unfortunately, this

changed everything. Hope drained away as we surveyed the large wound. How could you stitch it, with her

skin so weak? And, as her muscle and underlying tissue was exposed, even a bandage would not help her;

the muscle tissue would have become dry, and the chances of deeper infection would have been very high.

A vet visit that had been fairly pleasant and optimistic was suddenly very sad as we talked it over and de-

cided the only compassionate choice was humane euthanasia. Her skin was so very delicate that closing the

lesion would have been almost impossible, and her overall condition so poor that healing would have been

protracted and likely resulted in more suffering over time. So today, I witnessed the euthanasia of one of

my fosters for the first time. I have lost a couple over the years to disease and old age, and when I was

Adoptions Coordinator I authorized it on animals I hadn’t seen, but never been faced with this ugly deci-

sion in person.

Is it possible there was no way to prevent this? Is it possible she was carrying some bizarre disease, or con-

genital defect, that caused her problems? Of course, either scenario is possible. However, there is a take-

home message from this case, for all of us who own herps and are feeling the tightening straps of economic

hardship.

Letter From The President Continued….

V o l . 2 6 , N o . 1 2 Pa g e 7

This girl suffered and bled and had pieces of her skin sloughing off or tearing away for four years – four

years! – and her owners never took her to a vet. This condition certainly did not happen overnight. They

felt bad, I’m sure, but still watched her suffer and worsen for years. The professed reason? They’d had a

poor experience with a Chinese Water Dragon several years in the past which a vet was unable to save.

They felt that taking their snake to the vet would be a waste of time and money. So, they simply watched

her suffering as time went on. I understand that not everyone realizes we’re here as a resource; I under-

stand that when they went to their pet store to get advice, they thought they were doing what was right. I

understand that the services of a good vet can be expensive – but that’s part of the deal when you get a pet.

At the very least, they could have taken her to a vet for compassionate euthanasia to end her suffering. This

would have been harder on her owners, yes, but in the best interests of their pet as a means to end her pain.

I like to think no one in our group would allow a similar situation to evolve with one of their own animals.

Although PNHS’ Adoptions and rescue program does not exist to serve as a receptacle for unwanted vet-

erinary cases (we don’t have the time, personnel, or financial backing for this), at least I hope our members

are aware that we are here as a resource of last resort. It’s embarrassing to call a vet and make an appoint-

ment if you feel that you can’t afford proper care and it’s difficult to ask for euthanasia as a solution, but

how do these factors stand up to pain and suffering in an innocent animal? I know that euthanasia is a hard

choice and a difficult option. As much as I knew that Arpi was not fixable and that her condition was not

something that could be reversed with time and love, it still hurt me to make the choice to euthanize – and

she’s merely a foster I have had for only two weeks. However, I couldn’t in good conscience look at my-

self in the mirror if I had chosen to let her continue suffering when there was another option. In these

times of extreme economic hardship for so many of us, we need to remember that our herps can’t always

tell us how miserable they are or that they’re in pain. Sometimes putting off that vet visit is not just a mat-

ter of economics, but about the suffering of an animal that has no voice.

vation. “We hope that by offering a reward, we can rediscover this amazing reptile and implement con-

servation measures to ensure its survival into the future.”

The South Florida Rainbow Snake is a harmless aquatic snake that feeds exclusively on the American eel.

It is known from just three specimens, the last of which was collected in 1952 near Fisheating Creek in

Glades County, Florida. In early October 2011, the U S. Fish and Wildlife Service declared the snake ex-

tinct, thereby denying it protections under the Endangered Species Act. The Service made its determina-

tion without conducting any focused surveys for the reclusive reptile and despite anecdotal evidence of

snakes eating eels in the Fisheating Creek area.

“It’s heart-wrenching to think the South Florida Rainbow Snake could be lost forever,” said Collette Ad-

kins Giese, a Center for Biological Diversity attorney focused on the protection of imperiled reptiles and

amphibians. “But if we can find these snakes, they’d be very likely to get protection under the Endan-

gered Species Act , the most powerful tool in the country for saving plants and animals from extinction.”

The Service announced the extinction of the South Florida Rainbow Snake in response to a petition filed

by the Center for Biological Diversity seeking Endangered Species Act protection for the snake and

more than 400 other aquatic species in the southeastern United States. If rediscovered, the Rainbow

Snake would receive an in-depth scientific review along with 374 species from the petition (including 114

TAMPA, FLORIDA:

The Center for Biological Diversity and the Center for Snake

Conservation announced today that they are offering a $500.00

reward for the first person to document the existence of the

South Florida Rainbow Snake. Both conservation organizations

believe that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service last month pre-

maturely declared the species extinct without conducting tar-

geted surveys, and despite several unconfirmed sightings.

“Declaring the South Florida Rainbow Snake extinct without

adequate search effort is scientifically irresponsible,” said Cam-

eron Young, executive director of the Center for Snake Conser-

in Florida), which the Service found may warrant protection under the ESA.

Background

The South Florida Rainbow Snake (Farancia erytrogramma seminola) is a subspecies of rainbow snake known

only from a single population in Fisheating Creek, which flows into the western side of Lake Okeechobee.

Fisheating Creek remains relatively pristine and could still support the snakes. But potential habitat in other

parts of Florida has been severely degraded by channelization and pollution, especially agricultural runoff.

The snake is believed to be nearly entirely aquatic and active only at night, making detection difficult without

extensive and specialized survey effort. There were multiple unconfirmed sightings of the snake in the late

1980’s. “It’s a beautiful animal, with three red stripes along its iridescent bluish-black back and a belly that is

yellow and red with black spots on each scale,” says Cameron Young. Adult snakes can be over four feet

long.

Snakes and other reptiles are among the most imperiled vertebrate species on the planet. Globally, nearly

one-quarter of all evaluated reptile species are endangered or vulnerable to extinction, according to the Inter-

national Union for Conservation of Nature’s 2011 Red List. Also, scientists currently lack sufficient informa-

tion to assess the status of nearly 20 percent of the world’s reptiles. Many species are disappearing faster than

scientists can study them.

The Center for Biological Diversity is a national, nonprofit conservation organization with

more than 320,000 members and online activists dedicated to the protection of endangered

species and wild places.

The Center for Snake Conservation is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to promote

the conservation of snakes and their natural ecosystems and implement positive change in

human attitudes towards snakes.

PCBs Eating Away at Turtles:

Chemicals that have lingered in the environment for decades may be eating

away at the bones of turtles and, maybe, us.

By Eily Sohn, THE GIST

Exposure to PCBs leads to stunted growth and low bone-density in turtles.

Turtle bones grow like human bones do, and enough exposure to PCBs might harm us in

similar ways. PCBs have been long banned but they remain ubiquitous in the environment.

When exposed to certain levels of PCBs, turtles suffer from stunted growth and weak

bones, found a new study.

With low bone-density, turtles have a tougher time diving, swimming and chewing their

food. And the same is probably true for fish and other wild animals that are exposed to the

ubiquitous environmental pollutant.

It's too soon to know what the results mean for people, and our level of exposure is proba-

bly much lower than what some turtles experience. But there is reason to believe that the

shelled creatures might be sentinels for human health.

"There have been a few published studies done in Nordic countries that correlated indi-

viduals who consume a lot of fish with increased incidence of hip fractures," said Dawn

Holliday, a physiological ecologist at Westminster College in Fulton, Missouri.

"Turtles make and break bone through a very similar process that mammals and humans

do," she added. (If humans were exposed at similar concentrations, it might be relevant.)

PCBs, which were once commonly used in pesticides and a wide variety of industrial fluids,

have been banned for decades. But with very slow breakdown times, they are still wide-

spread in the environment, particularly in more developed areas.

In fish, birds, minks and other creatures, PCBs have been linked with slower growth rates,

particularly in young animals and developing embryos. Studies have also connected expo-

sure to the chemical with tumors in mink jaws and deformed heads in zebrafish. Exposed

adult animals tend to suffer from immune system and related problems.

Vol. 26, No. 12

“PCBs in turtles...” Continued...

Holliday and colleague Casey Holliday, who is also her husband, had previously found

that PCB exposure caused the metabolisms of turtles to slow down, making them slug-

gish and less able to turn their food into energy. To see if turtle bones, too, might be at

risk from chemical exposure, the researchers collected diamondback terrapin eggs from

the wild, hatched them in the lab, and raised them on frozen brine shrimp.

After eight months to ensure the animals were growing normally, the scientists injected

some of the turtles with a dose of PCB 126 that was equivalent to what they might en-

counter in an urban lake or river. Other turtles got a placebo injection.

Six months later, the researchers reported in the journal Aquatic Toxicology, the shells

of the PCB-injected group had grown just one millimeter (0.04-inch) in length, com-

pared to 10 mm (0.4 inches) in the uncontaminated turtles.

"It was such a big difference that you could see it," Dawn Holliday said. "You didn't

have to get out a ruler to measure them."

The PCB group also had widespread patches of bone that were not mineralized, while

the pollution-free turtles had strong, hard bones. Like dioxins and BPA, PCBs seem to

interfere with hormone activity, Holliday said.

“The chemicals also appear to disrupt cell growth and differentiation,” said Don Tillitt,

an environmental toxicologist with the United States Geological Survey in Columbia,

Missouri.

“Linking illnesses and deformations in wild animal with specific chemicals can be ex-

tremely difficult to do,” Tillit said. Lab studies like this one add important details that

can eventually help scientists both solve and prevent environmental mysteries.

"Every time they make progress in better understanding the adverse effects of chemi-

cals like PCBs, and PCBs in particular," he said, "it quite often helps with ecological risk

assessments and how we set regulatory limits for cleaning up sites."

The study is also a reminder that animal deaths aren’t the only sign that something is

wrong in the environment.

"When we see effects like this, we know there are things that are maybe more insidi-

ous," Tillit said. "It's a good reminder that we have to be on guard."

At Dr. Lisa Dzyban’s request, two of PNHS Board

Members brought all sorts of animals for a “hand’s-

on” lesson for her veterinary technician program

students.

Membership Secretary Vivian Eleven and President-

Elect Brenda Huber made the trip with a few of

their own pets and an assortment of PNHS fosters.

Included were: 4 Corn Snakes, a Ball Python, 3 Bearded Dragons, a Chinese Water

Dragon, an Ornate Box Turtle, a Russian Tortoise, a Pacman Frog, and a White’s Tree

Frog.

The curriculum for the day had

each student handling a snake

and a lizard or chelonian, open-

ing the animal’s mouth, and tak-

ing vital statistics.
