Does anyone know witch country/countries in Southeast Asia have been exporting most tokays to Europe and the U.S.A.?
I think it could be fun to know, witch area within the tokays great range, that our animals in captivity has come from.
Greetings, Tobias (Denmark)
from what i recall most are coming from Viet Nam, however i don't know what part of the country they are from, or what % of the geckos are coming from there.
All I know is that Thailand is exporting a lot of tokays to Hong Kong. From November 1993 to October 1994 it was 36,000 animals.
That indicates that Thailand is a huge exporter of tokays.
But I dont know if Thailand is also selling a lot of tokays to Europe and U.S.A..

Definitely not. Tokays from Vietnam look very unique, greenish, almost like G. smithii. Todays tokays do come from Indonesoia and Malaysia.
I answered your Q to some more detail at the DGHT forum.
