I am glad you posted. Ever since I talked to you last year when you and Rich brought them in from Costa Rica there have been rumers spreading. I am honestly surprised how so many people stick to a belief with no proof or research to back it up, there are things called legitimet sources!

The gentleman that owns the Serpentarium was the only person ever given permission to go to the Pearl Islands and collect Sabogae, also the only one given permission to collect Wild Costa Rican Imperator. He has worked with both, his BCI have been in Europe now for a while, and recently in the U.S. When you and Rich Ihle brought them in they were in herptoculture for the first time.

I wonder how many of these people with alleged claims have even read Rich's Salmon Boa description, or seen pictures of the matriarch.

Thanks for posting,
Christopher
