I often visit the 'Pine Bull and Gopher' snake forum of this site. Hardly anthing is said about husbandry, its a non-stop stream of pictures! (I really like pituophis, any pituophis)

My point is, why isn't the monitor world like the pit world? With pit owners, all animals are known by their locale, and those locales are kept pure. I have read that unknown animals or crosses (between locales) are frowned upon and never purchased by the pit people.

Hmmm....
Guess we can't do that in the monitor world. We're such a small minority. Not enough monitor keepers, or those actually breeding them. Still, having the animals identified as to their native locales would help in matching up animals that recognized each other.
