Take Calcium Sand off the Market

Addressed to: Petsmart & Petco
Sand is bad for reptiles in general. However, leopard geckos are suffering the most from sand impaction because of the false belief that leopard geckos are "desert animals". If you do your reasearch, leopard geckos in the wild AVOID sandy deserts. The definition of desert does not specifically mean sand. As such, leopard geckos DO NOT need sand and should not live on it. They are at dangerously high risk of sand impaction which kills hundreds if not thousands of leopard geckos each year.
I'm addressing this to the 2 most popular big chain pet stores because their employees give out completely incorrect information about leopard geckos and the environment they need. Petsmart and Petco, if you google PetSmart/Petco animal abuse, you will find over 400,000 results. It's become more obvious leopard geckos aren't the only animals abused at your stores.
