I mostly disagree, and generally like places that aren't hung up on rules that (in this case) don't really make a difference. Who cares if the person next to me at dinner has a pet snake? I know a guy who takes his pet parrot to the grocery store and the hardware store. It's a hoot. I took my former dog, an exceptionally mellow and adaptable doxie mix, on a plane flight (about 10 years ago) to see my parents. The passengers were generally glad for the diversion.

Quite a few people would care. Personally I'm uncomfortable with most animals and would hate to be stuck on a plane with one nearby. If I knew an airline let animals on I'd definitely consider flying with someone else.

Pet reptiles are common reservoirs for Salmonella. You can be poisoned for Salmonella and when this bacteria enter a kitchen can be difficult to erradicate. A restaurant can be closed for this, so is a very abuse-prone field. For instance a dishonest owner of another restaurant only needs to pay an actor and his snake to move to some rival restaurant and sip his coffe each afternoon 7days for 3, 6 months or the time necessary to nuke it. All with the happy help and merry cooperation of this org. A girl friend of mine had your father sit in a wheelchair for the rest of his life for a salmonella poisoning. He lost their job, their mobility, and their former life. Not, is not funny at all. Some people are very allergenic to some pets, also. Other are phobic or just don't like pets. Is unfair to them to force to be near an animal when they were expecting instead a safe only-humans/dogs allowed area. I could also easily imagine a call for troubles if you put a big pink pig pet farting in a plane full of people of jew or muslim origin.
