Has anyone had experience with water dragons and cork bark wall panels? I would like to know how the cork bark stood up to the dragons claws and how long it has lasted.
Thank you

There was a post a few months ago regarding cork bark tiles. The poster had mentioned using them in tree monitor cages. Apparently the tiles hold up pretty well. The tiles are approximately 1/2 inch thick and measure roughly 12 by 12 inches - at least the ones I've seen. The tiles are made from chunks of cork bark fused together and it's been my experience they can be broken or can be crumbly if not adhered properly. If you're talking about using whole pieces of rough natural cork bark I think it would hold up pretty well.
