trioceros laterispinis

I think all the efforts should be done on helping, protecting and restoring their habitat.
I do not understand how they dare to say there are cites when the wild animals are extremely hard to find in the area.
Hope they do not get exported until the numbers increase in the wild.

farmed animals. is the darker side of a grey area.

I think that is what I was attempting to say earlier. There should not be exports untill there are stable populations in the wild. This hobby is a privileged of accomplished conservation of these species in their native habitat. However yeah X2 these species should not be exported until populations in the wild are large enough to sustain sustainable collecting.

farmed animals. is the darker side of a grey area.

Farming chameleons can be done. However in this situation who knows what is going on with the farm breeding that is going on. We would have to visit this farm to have a look to say how much captive or farm breeding is being done. I think to be registered as a farm bred F1 Trioceros laterispinis for export they have to be somehow prove/document these chameleons as bred at a farm (off the top of my head for chameleons). It is that way for export of farm bred Scleropages formosus.

yes my thoughts were about if the animals are mated and keep giving Youngs in the farms or it is just pregnant females that are brought in to give birth and that is that for that female. would like to see this species recoverd and would love to be able to see some live. or of people who have them. btw did you got in touch with the personw ho bought them back 2013 or something?
