Monsters of god documentary on HBO

[DocZ]

There is an interesting documentary on HBO concerned with the history of the reptile import industry in the US. The good and the bad, mostly kind of bad. Thought you guys might be interested

There is a great book called the "Lizard King" about importer Stricktly Reptiles in Florida. This looks to be a follow up segment.

Yes! I’ve never read the book. I think the author is interviewed during this documentary as well

Crazy times during the heyday of what the book covers. I have my digits crossed that the documentary has updates to modern times.

I am interested about watching this documentary for import updates. About a decade and a half ago there was consistant news about illegal Reptile imports in the USA. The Reptile import scene since then appears to have done a lot of cleaning up in the USA. Europe Reptile imports is another matter.
