Show me proof, and I will grant him a point, but I highly doubt there will ever be proof because it defies common sense. It is unlikely that a mutation like that would occur in the wild for all of the reasons i have already stated, but I promise to eat crow if it does. :wink:I really do think kirby has a point Rosebud *ducks* We don't KNOW that they're not being produced in the wilds, they just might be smarter then the scaled ones and know to stay out of sight.
lack of pigment then inhibits the ability to be exposed to uvb which of course leads to animals inevitable demise.
where to draw the line in the sand?

in your country, its perfectly legal for you to pilage fauna from the bush, and breed hybrids and 'save a species'. here it isnt. i would get a $200, 000 fine for 'presereving the species' of the thorny devil and such. the legalities here, i beleive are far better then your laws and veiws on preservation. simply plucking spiny igs from the jungle isnt doing ANYTHING to preserve the species. sanctuaries and poaching free areas do. your simply lowering an already dismal population to put your name on a preservation quest (which isnt really what it is IMO) how does this help the wild and natural population. its ludicris to think that your going to breed and release these animals to a natural environment.
