Keep this in mind next time you decide to buy another non-native not captive bred from captively breed parents reptile that's native to Australia, SE Asia, Africa, or Sth America. You are supporting cruel criminals.
Please demand that the reptiles you buy are captive bred from LOCAL captively bred breeding stock by LOCAL BREEDERS (NOT reptile farmers !!).
