Do you mean is VPI still around?? Absolutely. The Barkers are two of the foremost breeders in the world of pythons.

Several people are still working with VPI jungles, but for the most part they tend to have more of a golden-yellow than lemon-yellow coloration.

I'm sure there are several other people working with VPI jungles. Also, I'm sure that 90% of them will tell you their breeders are direct descendents of the male from the cover of POTW. lol

I too have a good number of Jungles that I got from Dave and Tracy Barker...and you are right the Male on the cover of POTW is the grandfather to some of them ....
