I'm one of the RARE ones that goes to where these animals are and photographs them...I go a couple times a year, and it never ceases to amaze me the amount of habitat damage I see in pursuit of these things. I have friends that have some and in the event they'll breed, I'll get a couple...



They are a bit unlike specks from other locales...I wish more people would go and just observe/photograph...Unfortunately, these things are "different enough" that people "across the pond" will pay big money to get their hands on them.



I've seriously thought about getting a proven pair and breeding them...then giving away the babies...I may do that in the future, because quite frankly all this cash flying around is only causing more people to want to "cash in"...to the detriment of the environment.
