Hi Mark,

Sorry if I was not clear, the zoos here under the Thai Zoological Organization, are very straight forward and abide by the letter of the law. There was a very rare species here that I wanted to help them acquire, but they were not be able to due to its protected status. I do not have any knowledge of other zoos in the region, but the ones that I have heard about are actually not in this region. I am sure this kind of unscrupulous behavior happens in many places, not only in the ones that I have heard about.

Cheers,

Michael
