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,
