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
