And who do you think is the organization that determines what is endangered? CITES and IUCN work together on it. IUCN lists them, CITES is in control of how they legally cross international borders.



Other countries have different regulations and laws in place compaired to the US. It is in fact the Lacey Act that is keeping American safe from having endangered species as pets. I would have to go re-read the regs in regard to the other animals you listed. When I worked with Fish and Wildlife, I was specficially dealing with fish stuff.



Doubt it. Look at the cost of Leopoldi. Still very high, and we've been captive breeding them for almost 15 years without any issues.

How about a smarter movement.
Send money to a group who is working on reintroduction and habitat preservation so that are no longer an endangered species! Crazy idea, I know....but how many of you have done something to help the animals in need?

Main reason I haven't signed is I don't want to create an account and have my info sold again and again.

It takes 2 seconds and there is a box you have to check. I haven't got any junk email. And it might not change the law but at least we could try. People vote and I don't think it matters ... but millions do!

I haven't really started pushing it yet.. School work and Zoodiver I understand you don't think it'll work but honestly is it necessary to be so negative? Even if it doesn't work this time it'll spread the word about these fish. I think most of us recognize that there is a slim to none chance of it getting past. But honestly what's the harm in signing it? If you don't want to sign it I can respect that but, please don't bring your negative comments to this thread
