Well, I went by the cart and started asking questions, which made the boys who were working there pretty uncomfortable. There were no igs left, just some turtles, which is bittersweet. Anyways, the boys told me that the whole cart was shutting down in about a month, but I think I'll check back from time to time. As a bonus, we've already been in touch with mall managment.

However, it still bothers me that the pet trade is sending off animals to an oblivion that they'll never make it out of. After some brainstorming, I've decided to get in touch with some of the local media about the issue. It's all we can do as resposible herp owners to try and get the truth out there.
