I thought twice about posting that information, but figured anyone wishing to poach wild D. couperi would most likely attempt to do so in less protected environments, as one would have to have gonads the size of bowling balls to risk being caught poaching D. couperi on a military installation in Florida, as they are now quite protective of the species and wary of such activities.
Anyhow, knowing where to find indigos is one thing, finding them is another and capturing one is yet another. The Florida Fresh Water Fish and Wildlife Service distributes a pamphlet indicating, in detail, areas where one may view D. couperi in the wild, so it doesn't appear as though they are too concerned about passing such information along to the public either...

Best regards,

Jeff
