Tuatara

[Lepisosteus platyrhincus]

I have seen a lot of things in the market both legal and not so legal but I have NEVER seen one of these pop up unfortunately. But If you have the right amount of money you can get anything in the world- I am just willing to bet that that amount would be VERY high for an animal of this caliber.

Penguins are cool and all...but they stink too much for my taste!

Some little kid "stole" one from our local zoo. He opened the cage and went into the enclosure and grabbed one, absolutely hilarious. They've redone the enclosure so it's not just a latch gate to get in/out, but hey, still great. XD

I never even knew of any zoos in Jersey yet there is one that has a tuatara,please tell me where this zoo is located....I don't think the Philadelphia Zoo even has one.

i think he meant that a kid stole a penguin

In the book "The Lizard King" there was a section on a tuatara poacher who got caught trying to capture one for export to the states.
So as everyone said you cannot get them legally and it would be extremely difficult to find one illegally

Way to ruin the book for me
