I'ld really be shocked if there was any truth to Al Roach selling wild collected spotteds.

These people spent god knows how much money,wasted time, and got what out of it exactly?..I'ld be willing to bet the investigation cost more than they collected fines.

Then it states they released the animals back into the wild.
Do they know everyone of those animals was indeed wild caught/collected?

How about checking them for desease(s) before release into wild populations..I doubt it, and they'ld argue that they don't have the resources to test all those animals to I'm sure.

Al has helped countless people in raising and breeding spotteds which in turn makes CB spotteds available so people don't need to wild collect.

I don't know Al personally, but have his book, and have followed him on forums, including his own forum and he has been a huge help.

It certainly would be a bummer if he indeed did collect/sell wild spotteds.
