Collecting Pythons Going Business
Natalie and Roger Ruvell, an American couple in Cotonou Dahomey, run a python and snake exporting business from a rented home. They keep about 500 pythons, other snakes, turtles, chameleons, and a pet giant constrictor, with neighbors noting the housewide reptile inventory. They trap snakes along a 150 mile route three times weekly, paying 25 cents to $1 per specimen, shipping them to the United States while also maintaining domestic pets and aid from local helpers.
