True, some zoo registrars update, but I can guarantee that most do not.

I sorta disagree with your statement about muta' and melanocephala being a little more promblematic to adjust in captivity though.
The muta' I have worked/husbanded, were as hardy as stenophrys that I have kept. Granted all of the muta' I had were wild-caught, but once they were established, they were ever bit as hardy as the stenophrys.
I have never worked melanocephala's, so I cannot comment on that. I have seen Earl Turners hybrids though, (I think they were hybrids) and they were heavy bodied animals, looks like they never missed a meal. LOL!
