Our lab (or at least the facility I'm in) in mostly comprised of donated animals or animals that have come through the University's Vet School.............The University's Herpetologist doesn't focus on local fauna, but concentrates on Anolis lizards. The lab animals are mostly for various biology/vertebrate biology/ecology courses and are sometimes used for educational "shows" and SnakesAlive! events....things of that nature.

But yes, when we do have a specimen there is always a specific address on the enclosure's label pertaining to that animal housed inside.

Latitudes don't entirely mean the biodiversity will be constant........East TN is actually in a higher elevation(as opposed to the rest of TN, but with Knoxville being in a valley.

I'll see about finding some farms to set up some AC. What are "good" locations? i.e. would a running water source near by be a positive.....how about a stagnant? I'd assume ponds would provide more food items, but I've never found any king on the shore of a pond.

Sorry to hear about the weather up there......I'm sick of cold right now, but it is slowly warming up down here(for now).
