..in Monrovia/
Man I used to hang out there back in the 70's. I rememeber all the cool stuff they would bring in from mexico. back then the Mtn King was my favorite snake. Imagine what it was like to lay my eyes (and hands) on the first Sinaloans they brought in. I remember them coming back from a trip and I helped them open the cloth bags to put the snakes away. It was unbelevable, all the new stuff they caught.
Most of it is just a blur now. But back then i wanted one of each. I could not get enough of that place. Way cooler than hermosa reptile. It was also light years ahead of trhe east coast market back then. All these NEW snakes came right up from South America and mexico stright to to calif and people there purchased them.
On the gopher x king i can find out from Hubbs if it was near ventura. But i have heard of others like it being found.
Florida seems to have a lot of wild hybridization going on. ----- www.Bluerosy.com
