Those numbers you speak of are they for live or skins or both?

To do that accurate you'd need to know the number that came in for the pet trade itself not just the total number of quotas. Unless of course you are going by the live and not skins.

Salvator has a higher number of quota why didnt you use them? is it because 3/4 of that is used for skins?

All be it the pet trade ads to those numbers but it is the lesser of the two evils.

Here is a question if I found a pair of monitors on an island and they were the last 2 would it be better to place them in a jar or send them to a breeder? Or even still leave them be and hope they produce before the island is wiped out?

Which leads me into when they get worried about populations why not reintroduce captive born young back out to the wild? I hope you do not say cause they wouldnt make it. I bet you they can and will. We have proof of that here in florida many times over.

Oh yeah and even though you said not to read it all I did this time. As the last time you seemed to think I was bad for not. Kind of ironic don't you think?
