An island somewhere......
Apparently my post in the Buy/Sell section was deleted..... from what I was briefly told on the post they are banned? I'm guessing because they're illegal the post was removed..... dunno. If that is the case, are they and endangered species? What's the deal... I've seen them for sale on this forum and in LFS... any insight or input would be good, I was thinking of getting one but not if it's illegal. Thanks.
 
I think they're a protected species and it is illegal to take them from the wild....as for keeping them in the U.S. i don't think we're able to because of the Lacy Act
 
There are some stickies on this subject also
 
That explains it...... I just saw another post about a FRT with permit. That's probably why my thread got {edited by staff}.

Just noticed that...... I don't visit the Reptile/Amp. section of this site so I had no idea. Sorry for the Noobie mistake.
