This is a plea to the entire reptile community to find reptiles which were turned into the Lamar Dixon Expo Center by organizations doing animal search and rescue in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.
Before hurricane Rita came ashore, a large number of reptiles were taken out of Lamar Dixon by a " reptile rescue group" from Texas.
These animals seem to have disappeared.
Here at TortoiseAid we are doing all we can to assist people affected by the hurricanes with pet reunification efforts, and we've good success thusfar.
We returned from New Orleans with many reptiles, and slowly but surely we're getting them back to the people who miss them.
Several people have contacted us looking for their pets, the same pets who are missing.
Among these animals are tortoises, turtles, albino pacman frogs, dumpy frogs, and numerous snakes.
If you know of any "reptile organization" in Texas who has hurricane reptiles, please contact us immediately.
Any information you can provide in helping us to locate these animals will be kept completely confidential.
We may be reached at tortoiseaid@tortoise-aid.org
Please cross-post this information.
Kindest regards,
Annie Lancaster Director TortoiseAid International Inc. Post Office Box 260 Apple Valley, CA 92307-0005 USA
