I think that the 3 spotty little ones are deremensis too.
This angers me so much! It is bad enough to take wild animals illegally, but to take Rhampholeon Acuminatus (Critically Endangered) is completely messed up. They are my all-time favorite species and I would love to work with them one day, but I would never think about getting wild-caught individuals without following all the regulations, recommendations, and quotas put in place by the home country and the IUCN. They are a red-listed species that need protection before they can enter the pet trade again. Hopefully, these individuals make it back to the breeding project in the U.K @ the Paignton Zoo.
Yeah it was pretty shocking to read. Honestly I did not recognize the names of most of them and could not tell which ones were what. Except the T. dermensis. It was the only one I actually could id. People are pretty awful. What we are capable of is quite sad.
He who shall not be named is smuggling Chameleons now?
I spit out some coffee over that one
He should pay the amount he would’ve gotten on the black market, and then some!
